Todd Boehly ally explains spending cut Chelsea fans won't want in transfer window

Chelsea fans may have already learned just what lies ahead during the upcoming January transfer window.

Andrew Freidman, a close ally of Todd Boehly - who forms part of the ownership group that oversees the LA Dodgers - has outlined the MLB team's need to cut back on improving their own roster in the months that lay ahead. Chelsea, who have further injury worries to deal with following Armando Broja's recent setback, may have to wait to bring in further reinforcements it seems.

The Blues know Reece James' return will have to be monitored carefully, with midfielder N'Golo Kante missing from France's World Cup squad due to his own issues. Cesar Azpilicueta, Ben Chilwell and Wesley Fofana also look to miss the Premier League restart later this month.
