Only 5 Out Of The 8 Players That Chelsea Signed In January Can Instantly Get Into The Starting XI
Many Football enthusiasts are criticising Chelsea for the expenses that the West London club made this January transfer window. The Blues, under their Owner Todd Boehly and Co-director Behdad Egbhali, spent more money than the German Bundesliga, Italian Serie A, Spanish La Liga and French Ligue 1 combined this January as the spent more than £300million to sign 8 Players.
The Blues literally built a new team as they signed David Datro Fofana, Mykhaylo Mudryk, Andrey Santos, Benoit Badiashile, Noni Madueke, Malo Gusto, Joao Felix and Enzo Fernandez.
Chelsea was able to surpass what they Spent last summer in this Winter transfer window. Despite adding some new faces to the team at the beginning of this season, their form has been quite awful as they are out of the FA Cup and EFL Cup.
With the addition to the Graham Potter’s side, Chelsea would be expected to make a late charge for the Premier league Top 4 and also challenge for the UEFA Champions League title this season.
The ability of many of the new Signings to break into the club’s starting lineup instantly after their arrival to Stamford Bridge explains the bad form of the squad.
Benoit Badiashile has already benched Kalidou Koulibaly. Mykhaylo Mudryk and Joao Felix are also ready to lead the attack. Noni Madueke is another Player to be given a chance while Enzo Fernandez will surely played an important role at Chelsea in the second half of this season.
Malo Gusto would have also been an instant starter but, he returned to Lyon on loan while Andrey Santos and David Datro Fofana might not be given a space in the starting lineup yet but for now, Mykhaylo Mudryk, Joao Felix, Enzo Fernandez, Noni Madueke and Benoit Badiashile will get into starting lineup.
