Andre Villas-Boas Promises New Signings

Finally, Andre Villas-Boas has promised some spending on Chelsea’s part. So far, this summer is turning out to be a frustrating one. Yes, we signed Fernando Torres and David Luiz only six months ago, but still, to see the likes of Manchester United, Manchester City, and Liverpool spend big money – while we remain dormant – is hurting a bit.

We are yet to make a proper signing, although it is not for the lack of interest in players like Modric and Lukaku. Chief executive Ron Gourlay said that at least two new signings would be made within 10 days. Now, Andre Villas-Boas has given the biggest hint that we will finally splash some cash.

“The players we have shown interest in are young and looking to the future of the club but you might see similar moves in the future from us. It is one of the oldest squads in the Premier League. We respect them and we are happy enough with the quality that we have to challenge for the title but we are also looking into the future.”

There is plenty of time remaining in this transfer window. Even if Chelsea do not make the sort of extravagant signings like in January 2011, it is vital to bring in some new faces especially considering that the African Cup of Nations is also looming.
