It’s surprising that Chelsea, at this point in the January transfer window, has yet to make any signings, especially considering that by this time last year, they had secured five players. Premier League Profitability and Sustainability Rules are a significant factor behind the limited activity at Stamford Bridge. Mauricio Pochettino aims to reinforce various positions, with a focus on securing a new center-forward and center-back. RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko, a target for Arsenal as well, could be a viable option, given his reported £43 million release clause. While three center-backs, including Ousmane Diomande, are on Chelsea’s shortlist, PSR limitations may lead to exploring a loan move with an obligation to pay the release clause in the summer.
