Mauricio Pochettino’s attitude towards transfers has changed.
Only a month ago, after the defeat to Everton, he was commenting on his lack of immediate ability, but public attitudes have changed significantly.
“I think I’m happy with my team.
” He said on Friday ahead of his meeting with Preston manager in the FA Cup: “We’re focused on getting the players back as quickly as possible.
” .
“We will evaluate things, look at the team, and if we see an opportunity, we may or may not do it, but we haven’t made any decisions yet at this point.
The 51-year-old is looking for a new striker to add to his squad this year, as centre-back and midfield still require attention, but it may be difficult to properly strengthen these positions this month.
However, the Blues are still linked with players from all over Europe.
Olise release clause
Long-term transfer target Michael Oliseh is reported to have a release clause of “in excess of £40 million”.
The player was close to joining Chelsea in the summer for around £35 million, but has since signed a new contract with Crystal Palace.
Although currently injured, Oliseh is having another great season and proving to many why he is one of the hottest young players in the country.
In just nine league appearances, the 22-year-old has scored five goals and provided one assist.
