The transformation of Chelsea under the club’s new ownership gathered pace on Thursday with two firm statements about their priorities. Cristiano Ronaldo, whose advisers had been in contact with the club following the veteran forward’s indication he wants to leave Manchester United, is not on Chelsea’s wishlist. High-calibre defensive reinforcements are.
There was an early start for Raheem Sterling on Wednesday. The first men’s team signing of the Todd Boehly era at Chelsea arrived late the previous evening and much was still to be done ahead of his signing from Man City being announced.
Chelsea have ruled themselves out of the running to sign Cristiano Ronaldo from Manchester United, sources have told ESPN.
Chelsea are currently going through their biggest summer overhaul for many a year, with Roman Abramovich having departed and his successor, Todd Boehly, running the show.
Sterling joined Chelsea on a five-year contract from Premier League champions Manchester City on Wednesday in a deal reported to be worth up to 50 million pounds ($59.16 million). The 27-year-old is Chelsea's first signing under the new ownership led by Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital, who took over from Russian Roman Abramovich at the end of May.
The news has gone down well in Chelsea’s dressing room. Raheem Sterling has agreed a move to Stamford Bridge and his new teammates are eagerly awaiting his arrival. They know what Chelsea would be getting from Sterling: a solid professional whose commitment can never be questioned, an intelligent leader highly motivated after leaving Manchester City, and a proven Premier League goalscorer who should make it easier for Thomas Tuchel to build a more flexible and clinical attack.
Giving young players a big-money contract has not always been the ideal route for Chelsea to take in the past. However, if there’s a time to do it, it is now. It's only right that Reece James is given a new Chelsea deal that truly reflects the incredible effort and work rate he puts in.
Raheem Sterling is set to become Thomas Tuchel's first incoming transfer of the summer ahead of Chelsea's pre-season tour of the USA. The England international has agreed personal terms on a contract that will see the winger earn in excess of the £ 300,00 per week he commanded at Manchester City.
