Chelsea, ready to break the transfer record
Todd Boehly has entered the blue team with force and could leave nearly 360 million euros in transfers, a record figure in a transfer market.

Todd Boehly, with the Clearlake Capital fund as the main backer, became the new owner of Chelsea in an operation that was around 5,000 million euros , the highest in the history of a sports franchise. Therefore, it is not surprising that the North American businessman wanted to enter the transfer market with the same force , and he has already achieved it.f

With the signings of Koulibaly, Sterling, Chukwuemeka, Slonina and Cucurella closed, the blue team has now disbursed around 190 million euros. However, following the departures of Christensen and Rudiger, as well as the likely dismissal of Marcos Alonso, Chelsea need more reinforcements in defense and that is why they are going for Wesley Fofana from Leicester.

Valued at £80m, which is close to €100m at current exchange rates , this top-tier defender is Chelsea's No. 1 target, who had to let Jules Kounde
or Presnel Kimpembe escape earlier. But Fofana wants to start the adventure and the Londoners could break the bank with him , although they could also do it with Frenkie De Jong.

This ensures that there is clear optimism at Stamford Bridge and that De Jong's signing for United could also be "kidnapped". If the move for the Dutch midfielder materializes, it would reach 63 million pounds, or what is the same, almost 75 million euros.

And although it is a less urgent operation, the other Barcelona player on the list is Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. The striker is one of the market options that has been raised in recent days , and despite having arrived in LaLiga last Christmas, the Blaugrana team could have the need to sell him.
