According to the famous football expert Graeme Souness, there may be a lot of players leaving Chelsea in the near future. He also believes that Enzo Fernandez, a promising young player, will not live up to the club's expectations.
It's no secret that Chelsea has been spending a lot of money on new players in the past couple of years. In fact, they have spent over £1 billion on new signings. While some of these signings have turned out to be great additions to the team, others have not been so successful and may cause the club to suffer financial losses.
One of these players is Enzo Fernandez, who was signed for a record-breaking fee of £105 million. Despite showing some potential, he has failed to impress this season and has been pushed down the pecking order by other players. This has led to speculations about his future at the club.
Souness believes that Fernandez is just one example of many players at Chelsea who will not live up to their potential. He also thinks that it is too early to judge whether the club's aggressive transfer strategy has been successful or not. While Chelsea may have missed out on the top-four last season, they have been performing well under their new manager, Enzo Maresca, who has brought them to fourth place in the Premier League and the top of the Europa Conference League.
However, Souness also believes that there may be some problems for Chelsea in the long run. He thinks that the club's scattergun approach to buying players may lead to a lot of wastage. This is a concern for Souness, as he fears that Chelsea will have to deal with the same situation multiple times in the future. He also points out that this approach may not be sustainable for the club in the long term.
Souness suggests that there could have been a different, more sustainable approach to building a strong team. He believes that Chelsea's current strategy of buying players who are at a certain age may cause problems down the line. He also brings up the example of Raheem Sterling, who was sold by the club for a very low price due to his underwhelming performances. Souness predicts that this may happen with other players at Chelsea as well, leading to the club losing money in the long run.
Chelsea recently drew 1-1 with Manchester United in their last Premier League match and will face Arsenal next. Souness believes that Arsenal, who were considered to be title contenders at the beginning of the season, have been struggling recently and may face a tough challenge against Chelsea. With their current group of players, Chelsea has a chance of finishing in the top four, but according to Souness, they still have a long way to go before they can compete for the Premier League or Champions League titles.
In conclusion, Souness believes that Chelsea's transfer strategy may lead to problems in the future and that not all of their big signings will live up to expectations. While the team is currently performing well, Souness suggests that it is too early to judge the success of their approach. Only time will tell if Chelsea's aggressive spending will pay off in the long run.
