Chelsea's new owners have been in place for four weeks now and Thomas Tuchel is still waiting with bated breath to discover the first addition to his squad. The Blues are set to return for pre-season training at the end of the week and thus far, no new bodies are set to be among their numbers.
Of course, Chelsea will be without their players who were on international duty and they are expected to join up with squad the following week, some in Los Angeles as the squad travel there for their pre-season tour. So there remains time for any new players to be folded into the squad before the Premier League begins against Everton in August.
Boehly has taken on the role of interim sporting director in the wake of Marina Granovskaia's departure and with Petr Cech departing at the end of the month, there will be plenty of responsibility lying on the American's shoulders. It is suggested the Chelsea legend chose to step down, despite Boehly asking for his help during the current transfer window. Granovskaia has made herself available to aid the transition.
