WHAT HAPPENED?
The West London side have not had the best success regarding attacking signings over the last few years, as Enzo Maresca’s side have seen struggles offensively despite their heavy investment on wingers. The Blues recently decided to reject the option to permanently sign Sancho from Manchester United following his season-long loan, and the Chelsea boss believes that the Blues ‘need to do something’ this summer to fill in the gap left by the England international.

Speaking to the media, Maresca said: "Jadon [Sancho] is not with us, so for sure that is a position we need to do something about. We have Noni [Madueke], Pedro [Neto] and [Tyrique George] only as the proper wingers, so something for sure is going to happen. When the transfer window is open, for sure, we can do something."
Getty Images SportTHE BIGGER PICTURE
Chelsea were also in the market for an outright striker following Nicolas Jackson’s struggles in the second half of the 2024/25 season, and promptly signed Liam Delap before the Club World Cup. It has been reported that the Blues are also looking to sign another winger in the form of Borussia Dortmund’s Jamie Gittens this summer, as Maresca is keen on bolstering his squad’s attacking options with an eye on his side’s Champions League participation next season.
WHAT NEXT FOR CHELSEA?
After the conclusion of the Club World Cup, Chelsea will go hard at the chance to sign a winger, most likely Gittens, as he has been the Blues' primary wing target. The West London side have already seen two bids rejected by Borussia Dortmund so far; however, after the Club World Cup, Chelsea will look to pursue Gittens' signature with determination.
