After a strong start of the season below the new director Enzo Maresca, Chelsea have been severely reduced in recent months.
Since December 22, Blues have won just two Premier League Games suffering from losses in Ipswich, Fulham and Manchester City, while designing Everton, Crystal Palace and Bournemouth.
This bad path of the form has seen Maresca’s side from the second to the league – just two points behind Liverpool leaders – in sixth place, with the possibility of European football next season now in serious doubt.
The cause of this decline is unclear, but from abroad, it seems to be a combination of factors: a team full of new, inexperienced players, Maresca match to manage an overloaded team that has become more difficult to control as weeks go, go, go, go, and lack of quality in key positions.

In the target, for example, Robert Sanchez was the most guardian prone to errors In the Premier League this season, seemingly costs Chelsea points weekly after the week.
Meanwhile, at the other end of the court, Nicolas Jackson’s goals have dried up and Christopher Nkunku often looks away, with his mind seemingly elsewhere during his appearances on top flight.
While the small business took place in January, Maresca is undoubtedly hoping to use the summer to re -examine his team and bring fresh talent capable of fulfilling his expectations and delivering Stamford Bridge’s faithful.
With this in mind, there are five players here that we believe that Chelsea should aim for summer.
1
Alessandro Bastoni
Entomb
Chelsea has no fewer than eight Plats in their team at present, but besides the injured Wesley Fofana, no one has fully convinced this season.
To complement Fofana’s rhythm, strength and relentless attitude, the blues must combine it with a complex, with a ball that can play a defender that can help to stabilize the ship. Inter’s Alessandro Bastoni is undoubtedly the best example of such a player in Europe today.
A wonderful passerby And Astute Dribbler, the Italian is as complex as they come when they are going to play the ball off the back. It stands at 6 feet 3, is also a natural presence, capable of winning the ball clearly in the air and on the ground.
While it would be a dream and a rational acquisition, Bastoni is currently connected to the Inter until 2028, so he may require a big money offer.
Chelsea definitely has the financial muscle.

Johann Bacago
Psv eindhoven
With the exception of the excellent Jadon Sancho, the Chelsea wings were derogatory this season. Pedro Neto just twice in the Premier League, and despite seven goals, Noni Madueke frustrates Maresca and Chelsea fans with loose performance, selfishness in the last third and inability to watch.
Mykhailo Mudryk, meanwhile, remains hovering after the failure of a drug test.
To address their issues in the right wing, Blues will have to target former Madueke PSV Eindhoven teammate Johan Bakayoko.
The Dutchman scored 14 goals and recorded 14 assists for PSV last season, Winning multiple individual values.
Continued his impressive form this season Nine goals and three aidsAnd he has been distinguished by his strict control, football intelligence and ability to score both feet – qualities he presented in a spectacular way when he Placed against Liverpool In the Champions League.

Milos is coming
Berdemouth
In addition to enhancing their center-back and right rear options, Chelsea also needs more depth on the left back. Marc Cucurella has been stable so far so far, but he cannot be expected to play every match, while Malo Gusto is not able to operate on this side.
In addition, Young Renato Veiga is now gone for Juventus for the rest of the campaign and Ben Chilwell has moved to Crystal Palace. Therefore, a young man may be lined up for the summer.
A special acquisition here, at least in our view, would be Milos Keros of Bournemouth. One of the separate Premier League defenders this season, Hungarian was defensively stable and dynamic forward.
His play was in full appearance during a Man-of-the-match performance in a 2-1 win over Manchester City in November. Kerkez contributed both aids for Bournemouth in the day, along with three clearances, two ball recovery and one intercept.
4
Diogo Costa
Porto
Chelsea’s need for a new goalkeeper is perhaps the most pressing issue, with Robert Sanchez already making five mistakes leading to a Premier League goal this season.
Porto’s Diogo Costa would be a definitive upgrade, and at the age of 25, he is a player who could be Blues’ No 1 for many years.
Costa has been one of Europe’s most credible goalkeepers in recent years, Record 78 pure sheets in appearances 183 for Porto, including 11 in 20 league games this season.
5
Victor Boniface
Bayer leverkusen
Chelsea has long been looking for a successor to the legendary Didier Drogba, who torments the Premier League defense with his power, ability and unparalleled ability to perform when it was more important to the Stamford bridge.
While Nicolas Jackson’s link-up play can even surpass Drogba’s, its lack of clinical finish becomes a growing concern, with Senegal striker often costing the Blues’ precious spots.
Bayer Leverkusen’s Victor Boniface not only fits into Drogba – Big, Strong, dominant in the air, and amazingly frustrated for its size – But he is also much more ruthless in front of Jackson’s goal.
Since the beginning of last season, Nigerian scored 30 goals, with average a Target every 103 minutesWhile Jackson found the net 26 times, with One target every 204 minutes.
