Only one week ago, Chelsea supporters would have reacted to Morgan Rogers’ name with a shrug of their shoulders.
Chelsea have already had to sell Marc Cucurella this summer, and they may yet lose Enzo Fernandez too. The Argentina international wants to draw down the curtain on his Stamford Bridge career, but Chelsea will only cash in for a record-breaking £120m fee.
But they are strengthening. Rogers has arrived, and Crystal Palace defender Maxence Lacroix is next, the Frenchman set to arrive for a £52m fee in what could prove a big upgrade on Como-bound Trevoh Chalobah.
Should they need to repeat that trick if/when Fernandez leaves, they could replace him with Newcastle United captain Bruno Guimaraes.
