Todd Boehly could be making more reservations for a 'great meal' this week as key talks for one of Chelsea's biggest remaining transfer targets continue.
The Blues remain optimistic about completing up to four transfers still in the remaining fifteen days of the transfer window, with Italian prodigy Cesare Casadei due to have his medical at the club, making there still a possible three more deals to be done. Of those three, there is an expectation that Boehly won't back down in the fight to sign Leicester City centre-back Wesley Fofana, whilst Anthony Gordon also pushes for a move away from Everton, though he could cost up to £50m.
If those two deals were wrapped up, then five of Chelsea's eight summer signings would be under the age of 21. One of their forward targets is outside that bracket, though, and would be a much shorter-term option for Thomas Tuchel.
