Chelsea and their transfer situation
Chelsea are being very cautious with their transfers this year. They have realised their mistakes last season due to which they suffered a lot. They are planning to buy according to their needs. Recently, the Blues bought Tosin Adarabioyo on a free transfer. They brought him to replace the Brazilian legend, Thiago Silva, who left the club to join Fluminense in Brazil.
Crystal Palace’s star man Michael Olise has been a target of Chelsea from the previous season. Due to the Blues’ mess up, they could not buy the Frenchman. This year, they are going for him yet again with more money and hope. Olise could be valuable addition to the squad especially the right-wing position. This would help Maresca put Palmer as a number 10, which utilises his creativity perfectly. Cole Palmer has been the star player for Chelsea last season where he scored 22 goals and provided 11 assists. A partnership between Olise and Palmer could be a game changer.
To buy Michael Olise, Chelsea are considering a swap deal where they would include one of their best central backs as claimed by fans, Trevoh Chalobah. As per many reports, Maresca does not see Trevoh Chalobah being a part of his plans and tactics. But the academy graduate does not want to leave the Blues. He believes that he can still be useful to his newly appointed manager and team.
The 24 year old defender was linked to a move to Fulham but the Eagles have expressed their wish to get the defender for themselves. They believe that the defender can be a useful unit in their defense line. Chalobah’s number at Chelsea are truly remarkable. One of the safest defender in this squad of Blues. Ex-Chelsea manager Frank Lampard called Chalobah the ‘fantastic’ defender.
Losing Chalobah could be a fatal mistake as he is one of the most reliable defenders in the Chelsea squad. His numbers are excellent and especially consistent. He is a versatile player who can play both as a fullback and central back. Maresca should decide carefully as offloading this young talent could later haunt him.
