According to Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea is not finished with the transfer market and thinks there may be room for more acquisitions in the closing weeks of the year.
It’s been a busy summer at Stamford Bridge as the team looks to bolster their roster in an effort to reenter the Champions League. In addition to a new manager, several new faces have joined the team, including Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Tosin Adarabioyo.
According to reports, the Blues are looking for a striker and a winger. It appears that they have signed contracts with players in both positions; all that is left to do is finish the paperwork.
Chelsea may complete further transactions throughout the transfer window.
Samu Omorodion, a 20-year-old striker, is set to join Chelsea for £35 million from Atletico Madrid. On Friday, it was announced that Chelsea had concluded a £51.4 million deal with Wolves for winger Pedro Neto.
Omorodion, who won an Olympic gold medal with Spain on Friday night, is anticipated to finish moving to west London soon, while Neto is scheduled to have his physical this weekend.
It would be easy to assume that Chelsea is finished doing business this summer after making the signings they were hoping for.
Romano has given an update, stating that the Blues are still looking for chances and that they think some may arise in the last few weeks of the season.
Chelsea thinks there could be room for a relocation in the last few weeks of the window, so they’re not quite done shopping! Mike Penders signed yesterday, and Gabriel Mec is anticipated to close shortly,” he posted on his YouTube account.
Victor Osimhen is the major acquisition Chelsea might still make, and the two teams are still in negotiations about the Nigerian’s potential inclusion in the trade that would send Romelu Lukaku to Naples.
