Chelsea were pretty busy in the transfer market this summer as they look to bolster an already star-studded squad.
Chelsea started off their transfer business by signing a third-choice goalkeeper in Marcus Betinelli from Fulham. The 29-year-old joined the Blues for free on a 2-year deal.
Signing a high-profile striker was at the top of the list for the European Champions this summer. Chelsea went big in the transfer market for a sensational return to the club for Romelu Lukaku. The Belgian is already enjoying his second spell in London, scoring in his first match back in a 2-0 win over Arsenal.ย
Lukakuโs arrival saw Tammy Abraham sold to AS Roma. Olivier Giroud made the move to Italy as well, joining AC Milan.
Long-term servant Kurt Zouma left Chelsea after seven years at the club. He joined London-rivals West Ham.
Chelsea left it late when they signed Saul Niguez on deadline day. The Spaniard joined from Atletico Madrid on a season-long loan deal worth โฌ5 million.
