Another week is ahead of Chelsea and it will be quite significant.
The last few hours before the perm departs for the ‘first summer transfer window’ are already showing up!
This is the end of the reporting period for the actual financial accounts of 2023/24 for all clubs participating in the Premier League.
This is the final opportunity to restore the profitability in accordance to the special work rules known as profitability and sustainability rules (PSRs).
Chelsea feels that they have already given their best effort.
As to the future, unpredictability reigns, but it’s a topic best left for another time.
No player has been sold early in the summer market as Conor Gallagher and Trevoh Chalobah have been retained.
But for that, there is still time and we should not wait for something like this to happen for that change to be driven.
Chelsea is reported to have submitted a bid to Barcelona regarding the transfer of young striker Marc Guiu, 19 years of age.
Barcelona has tabled new business terms for Guiu and another club- Bayern Munich is also seeking his services.
They are also on the lookout for the Arsenal’s youngster, Chido Obi-Martin.
Both Guiu are thinking very hard. Evaluating the given series of events, it can be concluded that Chelsea’s proposal for Guiu is a deliberate action.
To the matter whether this signing is necessary or not, it could be argued that it does not really matter.
In a similar way, Chelsea has embraced this model and has made long-term success its goal.
The actual potential, though, of this approach will have to be evaluated over the course of years.
At this stage the club can still afford to leave issues to be dealt with in the future, or more accurately kicked into the long grass.
This might cause some worry among Cobham forwards as they have been pushed to compete with young and expensive academy players.

If Guiu is to play for the first team, then Nicolas Jackson, who is currently 23 years of age will be the first choice striker.
Guiu’s arrival should not have a major impact on Jackson at all.
Thus, Jackson’s recent performance for the season also supports his status as the team’s senior player.
As for Chelsea, their approach revolves around the combination of youth players with experienced players.
In conclusion, Chelsea is into a crucial week as far as the transfer period is concerned.
It has both short term and long term priorities and objectives which are quite evident in one of the clubs.
An example of this strategy were the potential signing of Marc Guiu.
Chelsea has also been known for continuing to buy young players in the hope that their potential would bring great value in time to come.
To achieve sustained success, there are always decisions to be made and the process can take time.
