Chelsea will apparently sign more experienced players this summer and they did look into signing Virgil van Dijk.

If Chelsea did end up signing a van Dijk for example, then I think Chelsea fans would be absolutely shocked and many of us just never see that happening, even if they did allegedly ‘try’ to sign him recently. They also apparently tried to sign Mo Salah as well. Hmmm…

Forgive my scepticism around all of this. Like most Chelsea fans, I have lived these last four years as a Chelsea fan mostly in dismay and anger around what has happened to my beloved football club. I don’t see anything major changing any time soon.

Speaking on Sky Sports’ Transfer Talk Podcast this week, reporter Kaveh Solhekol said:

“Chelsea will sign more experienced players this summer, to be fair to them, they have tried before, they looked into signing [Virgil] van Dijk and also a Mo Salah return before he signed his new deal at Liverpool.”

Chelsea may have dodged a bullet on the Estevao Willian front, according to some recent reports from the Sun. Estevao could still miss the World Cup though…

Defender Tosin Adarabioyo has had a lot of criticism lately, but he deserves a lot of credit for his performance on Sunday, which saw him dominate in the air against Leeds.
