Chelsea need to comply with financial rules, both in the Premier League and with UEFA, makes outgoings significant. It is pretty simple logic, but the more you raise the more can be reinvested back into the squad.

I think £55m for Lacroix in this markets a fair price. Get it done Chels, get Colwill the CB partner he deserves

🚨 Chelsea will not be disappointed if both Enzo Fernandez and Malo Gusto end up staying. Neither are untouchables, but not many teams can afford the £120m and £75m valuations.

🚨 A factor in Chelsea potentially deciding to sell Enzo this summer will be that for as wonderful as he is on the ball, he can struggle when opponents run past him.

That weakness has caused structural issues for Chelsea. Fernandez only won 3 of 9 ground duels against England.

Although Real Madrid took the surprising step of issuing a public denial of any interest in Fernández this month, there are suggestions that they remain interested in signing the Argentinian.
