As we all know, Chelsea are in the middle of planning a complete rebuild of the squad. Thomas Tuchel has reportedly been allowed a budget of £200million from new owners, Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital. They have some defensive holes to cover as a priority, and whilst fans focus on the possibility of centre-back options, the Blues must consider their wing-back options as well.
Last season saw Ben Chilwell and Reece James suffer from injuries impacting the team as a whole. They must be provided with adequate cover in case this situation was to happen again. No player enjoys playing back up in their prime years, but adequate backup options should be assessed. Options such as Barcelona's Sergino Dest.
Seeing as Barcelona are set to employ half of Chelsea's first-team defence, surely they could be interested in a swap deal for their American full-back?
