Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel is keen on making some adjustments to his squad this summer before the transfer window closes.

According to transfer expert Romano Fabrizio, Tuchel wants to sign a new centre back and striker this summer.

The transfer expert said: “These are the two positions that they want to cover. They extended the contract of [Cesar] Azpilicueta, so a right-back isn’t something urgently needed now. The priorities are centre-back and central striker.”

Tuchel has ruled out the Blues signing a new midfielder despite N’Golo Kante’s injury as he stressed that they have other midfielders who can cover in.

The German in a statement on whether he would sign a new midfielder said (via 90min, “Another midfielder? We have Jorginho, N’Golo Kante, we have Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Conor Gallagher, Mateo Kovacic.

“They [Kovacic and Kante] are injured, yes, it’s a problem. But they will come back. They’ve not disappeared.”

For the defender, the Blues are working tirelessly to submit a third bid for Wesley Fofana from Leicester City.
