2 Transfer Ins And 2 Outs That Chelsea And Conte Should Complete To Challenge For The Title Next Season

The arrival of Antonio Conte has given the Chelsea supporters a huge lift. His arrival means the squad will be tasting an Italian flavor in their style of play and many pundits believe that Conte would surely lift the squad up to the paramount.

Chelsea had a poor 2015-16 season and almost every fan will want to forget everything that happened last season as soon as possible. A new manager means a new beginning, and the new beginning will surely bring a new start for the club.

The Italian manager Antonio Conte will be facing one of the toughest jobs of his career as the priority task for the manager would be keeping the hold of the star men of the squad. With no champions league football, many would consider switching the club, and therefore Conte will have to use his masterclass to keep the players at the Bridge.

A complete overhaul is expected in the Stamford Bridge in the coming transfer window, and therefore, we bring you the names of those 2 players, who could exit the Bridge and those 2 players, who could arrive at the Bridge:

Out:

1. John Obi Mikel-

The Nigerian was never a favourite of Jose Mourinho, but he saw a great growth in his career under the Dutch interim, Guus Hiddink. The Dutch gaffer gave the Nigerian many chances, but Mikel failed to prove his worth in the team.

He made just 25 appearances for the Blues last season, and was very poor in defending the lines. Many players from Europe are currently linked with a move to Chelsea, and a single arrival at the Bridge would definitely cut the playing time of the Nigerian for sure.

 

2. Loic Remy-

The 29-year-old French forward was brought in 2014, but has made less than 50 appearances for the Blues in his 2 years tenure. The Frenchman spent a successful time with QPR, but was only used as an alternative for the Spanish striker Diego Costa.

Remy made just 13 appearances for the blues last term and that was due to the absence of Diego Costa. Many believe that Remy is not a ‘Chelsea type’ forward as he sometimes lacks the desire to play for the club. In his 2 years at the Bridge, he has scored just 12 goals and it is reported that he might leave the club in order to get a proper game time.

Ins:

1. Radja Nainggolan-

The 28-year-old Belgian has been constantly linked with the Blues and I personally think that his addition in the team would definitely benefit the team. Nainggolan is a deep-lying player maker and is considered as one of the toughest players on the pitch.

Roma recently departed Miralem Pjanic and therefore, some complications might arrive in the transfer, but I’m pretty sure that if Conte sets up his mind on the Belgian enfocer, he would complete the move sooner rather than later.

 

2. Antoine Griezmann-

Chelsea are in desperate need of a striker, and many reports are suggesting that Chelsea are chasing the 25-year-old French attacker, Antoine Griezmann. The French international played every single game for Atletico Madrid in La Liga last season and scored 22 goals and bagged 5 assists.

There is no doubt that Griezmann would be the perfect candidate for Chelsea and with Diego Costa’s future uncertain, a swap deal for both the attackers might be a win-win situation for both the clubs.
