Chelsea plan January spending

Chelsea are planning to spend big in the January transfer window, according to Football Insider.

Former Manchester United and Blackburn Rovers chief scout Mick Brown has revealed what Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca’s side are.

Brown told Football Insider: “We know Chelsea don’t mind spending big and it’ll be the case again in January.

“From what I hear, the manager isn’t completely happy with his squad if you can believe it after how many player they’ve brought in already.

“There are still positions he wants to improve because they’re still not ready to challenge for the title.

“There’s a clear weakness in the team, there have been questions asked about the centre-backs and the goalkeeper, that tells you where their problems are.

“Everything they do well in the final third gets undone because one of their defensive players makes a mistake and then they’re back to square one.

“So that’s going to be their priority, they want a new goalkeeper and they want to be more stable at the back, with new centre-backs on their radar as well.

“The scouts will already be working to identify those players, because that’s how Chelsea do things, they will buy the players they think can help them win trophies.”
