That’s in response to a current report from main soccer switch knowledgeable Fabrizio Romano, who has claimed Todd Boehly’s Blues, who just lately signed Kalidou Koulibaly, are decided to usher in one other centre-back.
Along with Koulibaly, who just lately joined from Napoli, Thomas Tuchel’s facet has splashed out one other £50m on Raheem Sterling from Manchester Metropolis.
Nonetheless, regardless of their spending spree, the 2020-21 Champions League winners don’t look like accomplished simply but.
One other high-profile identify to emerge as a robust candidate to affix the Premier League giants is Kimpembe, who has been with Paris-Saint Germain his whole skilled profession.

Understood to be on the verge of launching a proper supply, given Romano’s report, it might be that Boehly has to dig somewhat deeper to be able to meet his European rivals’ £55m (€65m) valuation of their French 2018 World Cup winner.
Presnel Kimpembe to Chelsea?
It’s comprehensible why Chelsea are going all out to usher in a minimum of two new central defenders. They misplaced Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rudiger on the finish of final season after each gamers failed to increase their contracts.
Nonetheless, it does really feel like Boehly has taken over from former proprietor Roman Abramovich and he doesn’t actually have any thought about which gamers to focus on.
The membership appear to be going out and making an attempt to signal anyone and everyone. It’s turning into more and more extra obvious that there’s little to no plan in place so it hasn’t been shocking to see the likes of Raphinha reject the possibility to play at Stamford Bridge.
Kimpembe could find yourself signing and he could find yourself being an important addition, but when I have been a Chelsea fan, I’d be fairly involved in regards to the lack of foreplanning happening behind the scenes.
