Steven Gerrard has admitted he is concerned that Chelsea will continue to go against the methods of manager Graham Potter by buying more new players when results don't go their way. The Blues welcomed Noni Madueke to the club on Friday evening as their sixth January arrival taking the total spent in this window to £187million.
The 20-year-old follows Mykhailo Mudryk, Joao Felix, Benoit Badiashile, Andrey Santos and David Datro Fofana through the door at Stamford Bridge and football.london understands that new technical director Christopher Vivell was a driving force behind signing Madueke, having previously tried to do so at RB Leipzig.
Spending close to £200million this month takes the total spending under new co-owner Todd Boehly to over £450million after a summer spending spree totalling £272million was undertaken by the Blues, with Raheem Sterling, Wesley Fofana and Marc Cucurella as the three most expensive arrivals.
