Chelsea are filling up the squad with more players in this summer transfer market. Until now, the club has already spent close to 250M this summer after 10 new players including one new goalkeeper. The Blues signed new players for almost every position and could sign more in the upcoming weeks. Amidst everything, some players are also leaving the clubs. However, some young players are going for a loan spell.
20-year-old Gabriel Slonina left Chelsea to join Barnsley on loan
Chelsea’s 20-year-old goalkeeper Gabriel Slonina also left Stamford Bridge for a season-long loan spell with English 3rd-division side Barnsley. The American joined the Chelsea academy in January 2022. However, he remained at Chicago Fire for his further development. After that, the 20-year-old was on another loan spell with Eupen. With Euepn Gabriel Slonina has made 34 appearances across all competitions in the last season. Now the American youngster joins the English 3rd division side Barnsley for the next whole season. The blues keep their eye on the development of Slonina and will assist him with any kind of further help.
Chelsea recently signed a new goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen for Villarreal. And looks like he will be the first-choice goalkeeper for the Blues in the upcoming season. Last season the club suffered a lot with two of their newly signed goalkeeper, Robert Sanchez and Petrovic. That’s why Enzo Maresca was looking for a new number one. Finally, they signed Filip Jorgensen from Villarreal.
Chelsea signed ten new players in this summer transfer window. The latest addition is former Wolves forward Pedro Neto, who joined the Blues with a transfer fee of 60M. Before Neto, Chelsea signed two more players for the striker position, including Marc Guiu from Barcelona and Omari Kellyman from Aston Villa. But still, the club has been looking for a high-profile striker for a very long time apart from Omari Kellyman and Marc Guiu. Though Chelsea already spent 60m for a single player, still the Blues could go for another high-profile player with some huge money. Chelsea are on the verge of signing Samuel Omorodion from Atletico Madrid with a transfer fee of close to 40M. On the other hand, Conor Gallagher is on his way to join Atletico Madrid. But still, there is no final say from the Spanish side about Conor Gallgher’s move.
Recently, Chelsea also sealed the move of Aaron Anselmino from Boca Juniors. The youngster will remain on the Argentinian side for his further development. Another news came out that Atletico Madrid star Joao Felix is interested in returning to Stamford Bridge. Felix’s agent has already shown the player’s interest in joining the Blues this summer. So, the Portuguese star could return to Stamford Bridge once again.
