Lukaku

The Blues knew that they needed to sign a striker in the summer, and they got their man by snapping up Romelu Lukaku from Inter Milan for £97.5m.

On top of that, they managed to secure the loan signing of Saul Niguez from Atletico Madrid before the transfer window shut, adding depth in midfield. The only disappointment was the failure to bring in Sevilla’s Jules Kounde as a replacement for Kurt Zouma.
