This summer is sure to be one of the most important periods in Chelsea’s modern history. The club are in desperate need of a rebuild with Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen set to leave on free transfers, coupled with the fact it will be the first transfer window under prospective new owner Todd Boehly.
Blues fans will get a first glimpse of the post Roman Abramovich era and Boehly will be keen to show that the club can continue to compete with Europe’s elite in the transfer market. Aside from defensive issues that will need to be addressed after Rudiger and Christensen depart, midfield is another area that needs to be strengthened.
N’Golo Kante and Jorginho are both in their 30s and their respective deals at Stamford Bridge expire next summer. With that in mind the club will be keen to sign a younger central midfielder and one name that has been linked with a move to west London club is Jude Bellingham.
