 Radical “blood change” after January, Chelsea defense put on a new shirt

The Blues are looking for wholesale changes across the team and the defence could look very different next year.

Sign a new midfielder but lose money that could go towards an attacker. Bring in a forward but spend less on a defender. Cheaper defender could equate to no new goalkeeper. Graham Potter will have a lot to balance and weigh up when trying to divide up his transfer kitty next month.

Not only are Chelsea preparing to be unusually active in January they are attempting to do it in the most unpredictable window (post-World Cup) ever. Add in the new recruitment team tasked with transforming operations and the paradigm shift in terms of strategy and planning and there’s little to be certain about.

There’s an argument that could be made for a player come in for every position either as backup, starter or because there isn’t one currently at the club. That makes for a complex future ahead.
