It promises to be a busy summer for Chelsea with the squad needing strengthening in a number of areas in order to close the gap on Manchester City and Liverpool next season. The Blues will be in the market for central defenders with Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen both set to leave next month, but other areas of the squad also need to be addressed.
Central midfield will be a position of concern for Thomas Tuchel with N’Golo Kante and Jorginho both out of contract next summer. And with both players in their 30’s Chelsea face a real dilemma as to whether to cash in on their ageing stars in the upcoming transfer window, or offer them new deals.
Regardless, the club will be keen to acquire talented, up and coming midfielders to take the baton from the aforementioned duo. One name that has consistently been linked with a move to Stamford Bridge is Monaco’s Aurelien Tchouameni.
