After spending €260 million this summer between the signings of Pedro Neto, Joao Felix, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Filip Jorgensen, Mike Penders, Aaron Anselmino, Renato Veiga, Caleb Wiley, Marc Guiu and Tosin Adarabioyo, who arrived on a free, and Jadon Sancho, loaned by Manchester United, Chelsea are probably not yet finished with their recruitment for the current season. The start of the championship has not lived up to Enzo Maresca’s expectations.
