Sources: Summer transfer updates

Sesko, Osimhen, Toney, Ferguson, Lukaku, Olise Abarabioyo, Kelly, & Badiashile

Time to start looking a bit more into transfer plans for the summer now it looks like we are soon to get confirmation on our new head coach.

We will begin with some striker updates as that remains the biggest priority in the summer. But I’m also hearing Chelsea are considering a new goalkeeper, potentially two new centre backs, a left back, and a winger. A lot of this will all depend on other circumstances and player sales/offers that might come in.

Benjamin Sesko

Chelsea are seriously considering triggering his release clause that is believed to be around £60m and runs out at the end of June, per reports in Germany. The club will want to structure the fee of the release clause, so it’s never just as easy as triggering it.

As I’ve reported for some time, Sesko is a top striker candidate for Chelsea this summer and he’s become more and more of a priority option on that shortlist. Other clubs are also looking at Sesko and could become real competition.
