One Defender Chelsea Should Have Signed Instead of Fofana And Koulibaly

One defender Chelsea should have signed instead of Fofana and Koulibaly has been revealed.

News One reports that William Gallas, a former Chelsea defender, has listed 2022 FIFA World Cup star, Josko Gvardiol as one of the players the club have signed last summer instead of bringing Wesley Fofana and Kalidou Koulibaly, to Stamford Bridge.

This online news platform understands that while Chelsea have been linked with a move for Gvardiol, who was impressive for Croatia in the 2022 World Cup, they would struggle to sign him now as Real Madrid alongside other top clubs have also joined the race to sign the RB Leipzig star.

“Chelsea were linked with Gvardiol last summer, and they should’ve got him then,” Gallas told Genting Casino. “Instead, they got Fofana and Koulibaly.

“They already have Thiago Silva and Azpi [Azpilicueta], too, so it may be difficult to get Gvardiol now. At the start of the season, it would’ve been a good move, but I don’t know if it would be now.

“Chelsea panicked in the summer. They saw some players and put a lot of money towards them when for me, they didn’t meet their value.

“Some chairmen spend too much money when they’ve no idea what they are doing,” he added.
