According to transfer news from Express, Thomas Tuchel wants three new signings at Chelsea ahead of next season. The German tactician wants to sign a striker, midfielder and a right-sided forward to bolster the side.
Under the German, the Blues experienced a tremendous turnaround as they clinched a top-four finish in the Premier League and also made it to the FA Cup finals. But the cherry on top was Chelsea going on to win the UEFA Champions League for just the second time in their history, beating Man City in the finals in Porto.
Following the sensational turnaround, Tuchel, who had initially signed just an eighteen-month contract, has now been handed a new deal that sees his stay at Chelsea extended until 2024. Now, the German tactician is keen on signing three new players this summer.
A new striker remains high on Tuchel’s agenda, with Harry Kane and Erling Haaland being heavily linked. Both Spurs and Dortmund aren’t willing to lose their attackers. Chelsea might have to push hard to sign either of them. The next player Tuchel wants is Declan Rice, who can strengthen the defensive midfield. Lastly, a right-sided forward is also being eyed, with Jadon Sancho the primary name for that.
It remains to be seen if funds are, indeed, made available for Tuchel to go out and bring in players this summer. If so, a new striker and a defensive midfielder should be top priorities for the Blues and Tuchel.
