Chelsea may look to delve into the transfer market in January to reinforce Graham Potter's squad in the hope of turning their form around after the World Cup.
The Blues spent more than any other Premier League club in summer transfer window bringing in the likes of Raheem Sterling, Kalidou Koulibaly, Marc Cucurella and Wesley Fofana. Todd Boehly has led plenty of changes at Stamford Bridge since his arrival as Chelsea co-owner earlier this year, but he will be concerned by the performances of the team in recent weeks.
After being knocked out of the Carabao Cup at the hands of Manchester City in the third round, a competition in which the Blues finished runners-up last term, Potter's side now sit eighth in the Premier League table and eight points adrift of a top four spot. The World Cup break gives the 47-year-old a chance to work with players that will not be heading to Qatar to represent their respective nations as he aims for a strong start once the Premier League resumes next month.
