Chelsea cannot send more players out on loan for this season. UEFA ruled in 2022 that clubs were allowed to loan out a maximum of 8 players for 2022-23, a quota that Chelsea have already reached. (Sky Italia) #CFC

Amadou Onana and The technical mathematics

With few days to the closure of transfer window, the other name being linked to chelsea is Evertons defensive midfielder Onana. Having been at Everton for a less than a season and largely unknown, He is only 21 yrs of age and certainly fits Todds of Profile. But what is his game?
.
Onana game is established as an Old fashioned Defensive midfilder. He primary plays as a defensive shield to protect the defensive unit and is technically less gifted than all of Enzo, Rice or Caicedo who we have also been linked with.

Onana has instinctive and good ball reading skills that coordinates his precise tackling. Combined with his mild aggresive tackling and aerial strength both in offensive and defensive phases, it is not hard to see why he is one of chelsea candidates.

Being technically average, Onana can be effectively paired in a double two with either of Kovacic or Zakaria who are less defensively astitute and aggresive to great effect.

Having signed qualities in defence and attack, Chelsea current concern is Central midfiled and right back cover. A deal for Enzo should be certain Chelsea priority. Paying through our noses for less inferior players should never be happening whether its my Money or Todds money.

This guy Onana is cheap but not inferior quality and would be as efficient central midfiled candidate. Would be My secondary target after Enzo both Financially and Sportswise.

Why?

Enzo is the almost total complete of the three..Rice strength is his long range distribution and his defensive abilities. .. caicedo is better in ball carrying and little better in tackling.... but in our books we have Kovacic and zakaria who are good with ball carrying though slightly inferior defensive abilities... So that alone should never be their selling point...Kante is all round but injury prone.... but looking deeper, its the type of forward players we have acquired that would make you rather have more defensive astitute midfielder than attack minded midfielder as the next purchase as they can do almost everything upfront on their own....

Both Joao and Mudryk also have the propensity to drop deep to initiate attacks as part of their game...Coupled with Reece, Chilwel and Cucu propensity to fly and join atttacks you'd rather have a defensively solid midfield pair instead.

The truth is Todd should adopt an Enzo or nothing mentality or substitute the fairly expensive Caicedo or Rice deals with cheaper and better alternatives to them...

Onana completely fits that profile. Having been at Everton for less than a season though, pulling that through could be another headache.

Sneijder: "I am not a fan of Edson Álvarez. Last week I said something about Sánchez too. My mailbox is full of Mexicans. They weren't happy. I don't know if the Ajax games are broadcasted over there, but they can see it too right? That they both suck."

Jose Mourinho is eager to return to England next season and his representatives have let Chelsea know that he would be interested in a third spell at Stamford Bridge. However, the club have made it clear that they intend to stick by Graham Potter.

Moises Caicedo was interested in Chelsea but was fine waiting until the summer.

Arsenal’s bid has changed things. Thought of an immediate title race has given an urgent desire to leave. Brighton won’t be bullied into anything.

"There will be a time when I move on & it's important the mentality remains, people realise how special Chelsea is. I must make sure, as captain, that when people come here, they know what it's about & how much it means to the fans."

It took Vivell and Winstanley one window to attack the market for what Chelsea have been lacking.

It shows how poor we have analysed the team and profile players in the past. It feels good to be back.

Chelsea are the first team in history to have spent over €400million in transfers in one season. The €490.5million spent on 15 players is enough to build a full squad and exceeds the investment of Roman Abramovich's last 3 seasons combined.

With Caicedo and Onana out of reach as it stands, Chelsea have switched their focus back to Fernández.
