Chelsea are on a rampage now. After a quiet start to the window, the reigning champions of England are in full motion in the transfer merry-go-round. They started with Rudiger, then followed it up with the acquisition of Tiemoue Bakayoko – and now they have topped it off with the signing of Alvaro Morata from Real Madrid.
However, Chelsea still need to sign more players to have a super-squad. The left-back is a priority position at the Stamford Bridge, which is why Alex Sandro became their primary target initially. His high valuation, however, has left the trail cold – and here are 5 left-backs Chelsea could sign instead.
3Jose Luis Gaya
Another Spanish talent is just bursting to break into the scene. Not that he hasn’t already done that as he is well-respected in Spain. At one point, he was also linked with a move to the capital club, but it seems as though it won’t happen with Theo Hernandez now at Real Madrid.
Gaya is a pacey left-back that could be the Jordi Alba of Chelsea. Indeed, he is actually better than the Barca man when it comes to defending. And under the guidance of Conte, he could only get better.
