They may have to do the same thing next year, and one potential option who could complete their puzzle once more could well be Matthijs De Ligt of Juventus.
Reports from Calciomercato reported the Blues have expressed an interest in the 22-year-old Dutchman who signed for the Bianconeri in 2019 from Ajax for £67.5m.
And according to Fabrizio Romano a buy-out clause of around £128m will become active next summer.
It is an enormous sum of money, even for the Blues, but at 22-years-old, the Blues will be signing a player who can still improve on the enormously high standards he has already set.
His youthful age, and football’s ever-rising transfer fees – despite the Coronavirus pandemic seeing the footballing world lose billions, means he could also still carry significant resale value if another club wanted to take him from the Blues.
While Chelsea could potentially lose the back three who started the Chelsea’s triumphant Champions League final victory against Manchester City, De Ligt may be all that is needed to cater for their losses.
