As the summer transfer window opens, Chelsea is making frequent moves in the transfer market. The Guardian reported that Chelsea is prioritizing the introduction of Dortmund winger Gittens. Head coach Maresca is eager to get a right-footed left winger, and 20-year-old Gittens perfectly fits that tactical need. This month, Chelsea’s £42m offer was rejected by Dortmund, but Chelsea and the England U21 international have reached personal terms and are likely to make a higher offer in the future. Dortmund valued Gittens at £50 million, and Chelsea also listed Lyon's Malik-Fofana as a potential replacement.

In the winger position, Chelsea has limited choices, with only two left-footed players, Pedro Neto and Maduaike. Given that 18-year-old Brazilian star Estevan will join Palmeiras after the Club World Cup, Chelsea is even willing to consider the appropriate offer from other teams for Maduaike.

In addition to the winger's signing, Chelsea also focuses on introducing all-round strikers to meet the needs of rotation in the European game. The joining of Drapp Jr. has reduced the team's demand for traditional No. 9 players. The possibility of leaving Felix and Nkunku prompted Chelsea to seek to share the pressure for Palmer. To this end, they turned their attention to Kudus, but the first offer was unsuccessful. Chelsea and West Ham United's discussion on Kudus continues. Although no formal offer has been made, players have been proposed to exchange, but West Ham United tends to sell it directly. The 85 million termination clause in Kudus' contract is valid for Premier League teams in the first 10 days of July, and the player himself is interested in a transfer this summer

In addition, Chelsea has contacted Brighton to ask about Joao Pedro's situation, and the Brazil international may be able to sell for £60 million. However, there is no substantial progress in the negotiations at present, and Newcastle is more interested in it in comparison. Chelsea had also visited Xavi Simmons and Ekitic of Red Bulls in Leipzig, but Chelsea has not yet promoted the signing because Frankfurt's valuation of Ekitic at £84 million. Chelsea's multi-line layout in the transfer market fully demonstrates its determination to reshape the team's lineup, and subsequent operations will undoubtedly become the focus of fans' attention.
