As we all know, Chelsea have spent millions upon millions signing new players in the last couple of transfer windows as they look to build a squad to get back to the very top.
However, even with all that money spent, they still need to add more players to the squad in the summer in order to complete the rebuild, and the positions they need to sign in are now becoming obvious to most people, including Ian Wright.

Chelsea still need a new spine of the team in the centre. I’ve been saying for months, as have many other Chelsea fans, that we still need to sign a new goalkeeper, defensive midfielder, and a true number 9, and Wrighty agrees.
“They’ve spent [over] half a billion pounds and they still for me need a goalkeeper if I’m being totally honest,” the former Arsenal striker told The Kelly & Wrighty Show, as quoted by the Metro. “They still need a No.6 and they need a focal point centre forward.
“They’re nowhere near that. Since the [Roman] Abramovich era it feels like they’ve spent that money and they’re still nowhere.”
As the title says, he has hit the nail on the head here. But Chelsea are also now going to need to sell many players this summer and bring some funds back in to balance the books. So there is still quite a lot of work to do ahead of another busy summer at the club.
