tl.Chelsea’s dream defense after the 2024 summer market
Chelsea is predicted to experience a turbulent summer of 2024. The Blues need to supplement and strengthen key personnel positions; At the same time, some stars are no longer included in the development plan.
New coach Enzo Maresca faces the task of reviving and helping Chelsea regain its position as a Premier League giant. The west London team needs to strengthen the squad, especially in defense before the 2024/2025 season. So what will Chelsea’s dream defense look like after the 2024 summer market?
1. Tosin Adarabioyo

Recently, Tosin has been frequently linked to Chelsea. The 26-year-old midfielder made a strong impression in the Fulham shirt. Reputable sources confirm that the Blues will soon announce the Tosin deal .
The English midfielder will come to Chelsea on a free transfer. Besides the Blues, Newcastle United also wants Tosin’s signature. In the context of Thiago Silva’s departure, Tosin promises to help Chelsea fill the void left behind.
So what makes Tosin stand out? The English midfielder grew up at Man City’s youth academy. Tosin represents the U16, U17, U18, U19 Three Lions teams but has never played for Gareth Southgate’s England team.
The height of 1m96 becomes Tosin’s great advantage. The English midfielder is very strong in duels. A bright addition to Chelsea’s defense.
2. Ousmane Diomande

Ousmane has been on Chelsea’s radar for quite some time. The 20-year-old midfielder made a strong impression in the Sporting CP shirt. The Ivorian star still has a 3-year contract with Sporting CP.
Chelsea has sent scouts many times to monitor Ousmane’s performance in the 2023/2024 season. The Ivory Coast midfielder’s contract release clause is about 80 million euros.
Ousmane can play well as a right-sided centre-back, possessing impressive passing and tackling skills. The 20-year-old midfielder is comfortable with the ball at his feet, can escape pressing, and helps the home team develop play from the back line.
3. Wesley Fofana is completely Healthy

The French midfielder sat out the entire 2023/2024 season when he tore his anterior cruciate liGament in his knee. Chelsea hopes that Fofana can return to the field and participate in the summer tour before the 2024/2025 season.
The west London team will be very cautious in bringing Fofana back to the field. Coach Maresca needs his student to be physically fit next season. The return of the former Leicester City star brings quality additions to the Chelsea defense.
4. Pair of fullbacks

In theory, Chelsea’s most ideal full-back pair is called Ben Chilwell and Reece James. Unfortunately, both were often injured last season.
Coach Maresca and the Chelsea medical team need to find a way to help Chilwell – James reach perfect physical condition and limit injuries next season.
