Thomas Tuchel has hinted at Chelsea transfer disappointment for Frenkie de Jong as Man United offered fresh hope amid tough Barcelona situation.
The Blues got their season off to a good start this weekend with their 1-0 victory at Goodison Park. Three of the five new signings featured in some capacity with Raheem Sterling and Kalidou Koulibaly featuring from the start. Marc Cucurella got a few minutes off the bench as his £63million transfer from Brighton was confirmed just in time for game week 1.
But the spending isn't set to stop anytime soon. Both Ian Wright and Alan Shearer have identified the striker position as the main priority amid Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang transfer talk. Currently, though, defence seems to be high on the agenda of new owner Todd Boehly who is preparing to make Wesley Fofana the most expensive defender in the world.
