Chelsea have kicked into another gear when it comes to the transfer market in the last 24 hours or so.
Today saw the shock news that they had agreed a deal to sign Pedro Neto from Wolves, with him travelling to complete his medical.
This comes just a day after the Blues oversaw Samu Omorodion’s medical in Paris, while he prepares for the final of the Olympics football competition in Spain.
It is likely that both deals are announced by the club before they get their Premier League campaign underway with the visit of Manchester City on the opening day.
While many would not be surprised if this spelled the end of Chelseas’s adventurous transfer business for this year, that does not seem to be the case.
Chelsea looking at more attackers after Neto and Samu Omorodion
According to Fabrizio Romano, the Blues could still look to sign yet more attackers after both deals are completed.
He said: “Chelsea could be still active on offensive players market even after Neto and Omorodion.
“Osimhen plans to leave but NO intention to reduce salary/accept straight loan. Chelsea still keen ONLY in case deal conditions/Osimhen’s stance change… as Napoli insist for Lukaku.”
The Blues will have a plethora of options in the attacking roles going into next season, with there surely room for a number of those players to leave either permanently or on loan this month.
Marc Guiu could be loaned out
Marc Guiu actually impressed a lot during the pre-season tour of the United States, however minutes look as if they are hard to come by for him with the other options available for this season.
Another young star who made an impact in the summer was Tyrique George, and a genuine opportunity looked as if it was emerging for him to feature on the left of attack.
However, the introduction of Neto looks to have obstructed that, and he may be best placed playing this season on loan.
