Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel wants four new signings before the start of the season, as per The Athletic.
The Blues have made two additions to their squad thus far this summer, with Raheem Sterling and Kalidou Koulibaly arriving at Stamford Bridge.
Sterling, 27, has joined from Premier League rivals Manchester City in a £50 million deal, signing on a five-year contract.
Meanwhile, Koulibaly, 31, has moved from S.S.C Napoli for £34.2 million, putting pen to paper on a four-year deal.
Chelsea are seemingly not done there as the aforementioned source claims that Tuchel is eyeing four more arrivals ahead of the new Premier League season.
The German manager was left fuming with his side's performance during pre-season in a 4-0 loss to Arsenal on July 24, claiming the side lacked commitment.
The Stamford Bridge side finished third in the Premier League last season, winning the FIFA Club World Cup in February.
Tuchel's side did come off the boil in the latter stages of the campaign and fell to an FA Cup final defeat to Liverpool in May, losing 11-10 on penalties.
The former Paris Saint-Germain boss evidently wants improvements made to his team but they appear to have missed out on target Jules Kounde.
The French defender has seemingly turned down the opportunity to join Tuchel's side and will instead head to Barcelona (as per Fabrizio Romano).
Chelsea may be set to offload two out-of-favor stars this summer
There are question marks over the futures of a number of Chelsea players, including Timo Werner and Hakim Ziyech.
Werner, 26, has fallen out-of-favor at Stamford Bridge and Christian Falk claims that the German is a target for Premier League side Newcastle United.
The former RB Leipzig striker has had a difficult time under Thomas Tuchel.
He has made 61 appearances under the German coach, scoring 14 goals whilst contributing 15 assists.
Meanwhile, Ziyech's future is one of interest as he finds himself the center of a three-man horse chase from Serie A for his signature.
AC Milan, Inter Milan and Juventus are all reportedly in the hunt for the Moroccan, who has had a similarly difficult period under Tuchel.
The former Ajax winger has made 65 appearances under Tuchel. scoring 12 goals whilst providing 6 assists.
Ziyech could find himself lining up alongside former Blues teammate Romelu Lukaku at the San Siro if he opts to join Inter.
The Belgian striker has returned to Inter on a season-long loan, just a year removed from a £97.8 million club-record transfer to Stamford Bridge.

Sign Osihmen sign or loan CR7 sign Tieleman or Frekie de jong sign Odrizola or Cucurella Then mix them up with what you got …. You can stay very cooker to MANCITY and Liverpool all season this way (NOTE) don’t forget to change this Senegales keeper call Mendy ( he’s no more reliable)

How on Earth Mane costs £30m, Lewandowski costs £35m but Sterling costs Chelsea £50m. Old regime, New regime, same unwise spending...
Mane is 31 years old, lowandowski is 34 years while Sterling is 27 years old.... sterling still have more years ahead of him than others plus English players are always more expensive because of home ground advantage

Zyech is a top player and should stay. Alonso is good as Chilwell’s reserve. We need a top midfielder to replace Jorginho so team can move forwards not sidewards and backwards. Savic, Declan Rice, Dejong, … Sarr is not good enough for Chelsea and has no potential to improve. Werner should be sold. Batshuaye is not good enough for Chelsea. Hudson-odoi and Pulisic will improve. Gallagher needs time to reach his potential. He is overdoing it and seems nervous. Main question is still the striker. Can Havertz be the one?
like seriously so so true

To be honest, Chelsea this season does not look that scary, looking at the attacking up front, literally tey cnt find the type of play Tuchel wants tem to play, Being honest bringing CR7, wud be more clinical n he is lithal in front of goal, I wud prefer the next 2 season for CR7 in Chelsea

People should stop this lie about Ziyech being a flop at Chelsea. Ziyech has managed to score crucial goal and to shine even in matches where the other players would have given up hope. It is Doubting Thomas who has his reasons for disliking him. Most probably the reason is to do with his conduct and attitude and definitely not questionable performance. If it was that, then, considering the whole team's dismal showing at the end of the season, we would need to sell all of them.

What about shipping out the ones that surplus to requirements? Must you guys wait for the eleventh hour to put the team in order?? I am entirely not impressed with the transfer strategy of this new management.
