Celestial body: Chelsea thinks Harto and James can also play central defender, but the new central defender will not be added to the winter window

Hupu, October 8th, according to Sky Sports chief reporter Kaveh Solhekol, the reporter updated the signing situation of Chelsea.

Chelsea currently has no plans to sign goalkeeper or central defender in January. They won't sign goalkeepers next summer. Chelsea has three goalkeepers – Robert Sanchez, Philip Jorgenson and Mike Penders – all of whom are considered to be enough to be Chelsea’s established goalkeeper. In Chelsea's view, Robert Sanchez is an excellent goalkeeper, who has won the Club World Cup Best Goalkeeper Award. He started the season well and despite having red cards against Manchester United, he has reduced his turnovers.

Jorgensen is still well received in the club, and this summer he was the transfer target of some English giants. Penders performed well in Strasbourg, and his performance received some positive reviews, helping the team climb to third in the Ligue 1 standings.

This summer, Chelsea had the opportunity to sign AC Milan goalkeeper Mike Meinion, but they decided not to pay the asking price due to their confidence in Sanchez, Jorgensen and Penders.

Chelsea also has many options in the centre-back position, so it is unlikely that they will sign any centre-back player in January. The challenge is how to keep existing players in the best shape. Chaloba, Tosin Adarabioyo, Forfana, Badiacile and Achimpen are all high-quality centre-backs, and Colewell will return from injury later this season. In addition, Harto and Rees James can also serve as central defenders, and Chelsea also have two loan-backs - Saar and Anselmino - that are expected to return next summer.

Chelsea considered the possibility of signing a centre-back in the summer, but the only high-quality option available was Heysen, who decided to join Real Madrid from Bournemouth.

Chelsea is looking for a transfer club for Sterling and DiSassi next January. The players are currently in good health, and it is up to them to reach a transfer agreement in the end.

And in the forward position, George is likely to leave in January. Many UEFA Champions League and Europa League clubs want to sign him in the summer, and he almost joined Fulham on the transfer deadline. George is primarily seen as a winger, and Chelsea already has Pedro Neto, Estevan, Gittens and Garnacho. Portuguese striker Kunda will also be transferred from Portuguese Sports next summer.

After the transfer window is closed, Jiwu's loan to Sunderland contract has been cancelled and he will stay at Chelsea all season.
