Contract extension talks for current Chelsea players Mason Mount and Edouard Mendy will continue after the January transfer window is over, according to reports. The Blues look set to prioritise more potential arrivals in the coming weeks of the January transfer window after confirming the signing of Mykhailo Mudryk for £88million on a seven-and-a-half-year contract, with an option to extend by a further 12 months.
The 22-year-old became Chelsea's fifth January arrival following Joao Felix, Andrey Santos, Benoit Badiashile and David Datro Fofana through the door under Graham Potter. as 2023 looks set to be a huge year for the club following the takeover completed by Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital in May 2022.
After spending close to £300million in the summer, the priority has clearly been on bringing new players to the club with current members of the squad somewhat neglected when it comes to discussing new contracts.
