Chelsea gearing up for busy summer as Thomas Tuchel identity incoming players

Chelsea are already preparing for the next transfer window as they are eager to make a big statement in what would be Tuchel’s first full season in charge.

Thomas Tuchel was unable to bring in any player during the January transfer window as it was only a matter of days before the end of the window when he replaced Frank Lampard.

However, the former Borussia Dortmund manager has stuck with Frank Lampard’s talented team and have been able to claim four points in his first two matches.

Tuchel will be giving the go-ahead in the summer transfer to put his own stamp of authority on his squad and the board are ready to back him.

Some players have already been identified as RB Leipzig defender Dayot Upamecano remains one of the biggest in Chelsea plan.

Borussia Dortmund forward Erling Haaland has also been linked with a move to Chelsea as the Blues are willing to use the connection of Tuchel at the Bundesliga club.

Barcelona winger Ousmane Dembele has also been mentioned as the Frenchman will be hoping to get back to his best in London.

With Chelsea set to face stiff battle from top European teams if they are to sign these players, football.london reports that the Blues will be ready to spend money once again this summer, with FFP rules relaxed and owner Roman Abramovich ready to invest in the team.
