Here we show you all the transfers Chelsea has completed in 2022/23 season

Chelsea really went on a ‘player hunt’ this season and they didn’t stop until the final date of the January transfer window. It looked like the club owners were having fun signing new and talented players.

Their transfer amount this season has crossed the mark of €500 million. This means that Chelsea’s owners have spent half of what Pep Guardiola has spent as Manchester City’s manager since his debut for them.
