Chelsea face yet another huge transfer window ahead as the summer could shape their progress under the new ownership of Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital. The one-year anniversary of the American consortium buying the club will be upon us in just two months, and they've made their mark already.
In their first two transfer windows, the owners have managed to spend over half-a-billion-pounds in transfers alone, setting up their philosophy of signing talent for the future, though with plenty of scrutiny for how they've gone about it. With Graham Potter inheriting a large squad that was only made bigger with a number of January additions, the focus in the summer appears to be on moving some players on.
"We have a lot of good players and we have to create an environment where there is healthy competition," The manager said on his squad after the recent transfer window. "Only eleven can play, that is how it is, but it's about being ready and supporting the team. There's going to be frustration at times because only 11 can play."
