Our Chelsea fans here in the Transfer Tavern are already thinking about who they’re going to sign in the summer to help retain their Premier League title from this season.
You can’t really argue with that mindset either at the moment, too, with the club now ten points clear of the chasing pack in the table and looking as strong as ever.
You have to think, then, that it’s going to be hard for Antonio Conte to improve on what he’s got at the moment but you can bet what you like that he’ll give it a good go.
Indeed, the Blues are apparently looking at Franck Kessie with The Daily Star claiming that it will cost them £34 million to get a deal over the line for the midfielder.
The Ivorian has been one of the emerging talents this season in Serie A with his strong performances in the centre of the park for his impressive Atalanta side.
Our landlord reckons he will be on the move no matter what in the summer, too, and so Chelsea had better have their chequebook primed if they want him.
Thoughts, Chelsea fans? Let us know below!
