New Chelsea owners must gift Thomas Tuchel a new transfer model after genius £5m Liverpool deal
Prospective Chelsea owners must now prioritise launching a new transfer model at Stamford Bridge following Liverpool's latest piece of business. Jurgen Klopp's side, who have made a habit of making shrewd investments, have now armed their frontline with Fulham wonderkid and former Blues target Fabio Carvalho, according to The Guardian.
The 19-year-old's arrival follows Harvey Elliott, who swapped Craven Cottage for Anfield nearly three years ago. The Reds have finalised a deal for Carvalho worth just £7.7m — which includes add-ons — ending a transfer pursuit that saw Chelsea among those interested.
In January, Liverpool came close to snatching the England youth international from the Blues' grasp. Still, a deal failed to materialise on deadline day. In November, Thomas Tuchel's side registered interest in Carvalho, according to Eurosport; Chelsea's ongoing failure to wrap up canny deals calls for a transfer model makeover.
