Chelsea are expecting to sign three more players in the summer transfer window. The Blues already completed the signings of seven new players this summer. Now Enzo Maresca’s side wants to bring in three more players including Andreas Pereira from Premier League side Fulham, Elye Wahi from Lens, and 16-year-old Brazilian Gabriel Mec. The Blues already spend close to 150M this summer to bring some of the young talents as well as some experienced ones. But Chelsea still finding options in the transfer market for more players.
Andreas Pereira
Among all these three players Andreas Pereira of Fulham is the one Chelsea could go for in the summer. The former Manchester United midfielder could join Chelsea this summer if Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher leaves the club. Andreas Pereira had Premier League experience and previously played with Manchester United before moving to Fulham in 2022. The 28-year-old made 44 appearances for Fulham last season across all competitions.
According to reports of We Ain’t Got No History, Chelsea are willing to pay a transfer fee of more than 30M for the 28-year-old. But it all depends on the future of Conor Gallagher.
Elye Wahi
Move on to the next player that Chelsea are targeting this summer, Elye Wahi. The 21-year-old striker played for French side Lens. Elye Wahi joined Lens last summer from Montepiller and made a total of 26 appearances last season in all competitions. Wahi scored 12 goals and bagged 4 assists last season for Lens. The 21-year-old is one of the targets that Chelsea could go for in the summer. However, Enzo Maresca’s side already signed two new strikers in this transfer market, including Marc Guiu from Barcelona and Omari Kellyman from Aston Villa.
Getting first-team football will be tough for Elye Wahi if he joins the Blues this summer. So the Blues might consider a loan move will be perfect for the 21-year-old. Elye Wahi’s move will be the eighth signing and third striker signing for the Blues this summer.
Gabriel Mec
After the takeover of Chelsea Football Club in 2022, the Blues always prioritized young talents and tried to bring some of the best young talents in the last two years. So, now they are chasing 16-year-old Brazilian Gabriel Mec from Gremio U20. The Brazilian is under Chelsea’s radar and the Blues could end up signing him in this summer transfer window.
The Blues are very interested in signing the young Brazilian attacking midfielder and they are confident that they will be able to complete the signing. On the other hand, the 16-year-old is also keen to join the Premier League side.

Apart from these players, Chelsea are also wanting to sign a new goalkeeper. Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa already confirmed his departure from Chelsea in the summer. Kepa spends the whole last season with Spanish side Real Madrid on a loan spell. However, Chelsea are not interested in keeping him, as the Spaniard will leave the club. So, the Blues are chasing Denish goalkeeper Filip Jørgensen of Villarreal to replace Kepa. Chelsea also reached an agreement with the Spanish side to sign Filip Jørgensen.
The Blues are busy right now with the Pre-season campaign. Enzo Maresca still has to wait to get his first win with Chelsea, after the Blues drew their first match in the Pre-season against Wrexham. But the good thing is that the Blues fans are delighted with new signing Marc Guiu’s performance on the pitch, as the former Barcelona forward won the match of the match award after the game. Enzo Maresca’s side will now meet Celtic.
