Law points out that since January 2023, Chelsea has spent over £350 million on attacking players but has yet to establish a stable and productive front three.

Chelsea are not expected to make significant signings during the January transfer window, despite likely being linked to various players. Instead, the club’s primary focus will be on reducing the size of their squad and finding new destinations for players who are not part of Enzo Maresca’s core plans.
