Arsenal legend Paul Merson has handed Chelsea the signings to make this summer transfer window.
Many Chelsea players, including Mason Mount, Mateo Kovacic, Kai Havertz, N’Golo Kante, Edouard Mendy, and Kalidou Koulibaly, have all left Stamford Bridge for new clubs this summer.
However, Merson believes Mauricio Pochettino’s side needs to sign a new goalkeeper, midfielders, and a new striker like Tottenham’s Harry Kane.
“Chelsea are crying out for a new goalkeeper,” Merson told Sky Sports.
“You need a goalkeeper who is going to win you points. Having one can half move you up the league quickly.
“Chelsea’s midfield is crying out for reinforcements too. Everyone has gone. They have got Enzo Fernandez and Conor Gallagher at the club; there is talk of Moises Caicedo coming in, but that is all they’ve got—potentially three midfield players—that is it.
“As we sit here today, if Mauricio Pochettino gets Chelsea into the top four having only signed Caicedo, you would say he pulled up trees.”
He added: “They need midfielders, and they also need a centre-forward. The only player out there who takes Chelsea to another level is Harry Kane; he is the only one.”
