Football Transfer Update: Chelsea in the market for two more recruits- Benayoun from Liverpool added
Carlo Ancelotti, the Chelsea Coach has told everyone that they are not done yet as they still have at least two transfers on the way, the deals will be finalized and released to the media soon. In addition, as the transfer window is about to close soon, they need to hurry and it would be known soon who the new recruits are going to be.
Chelsea has already signed the midfielder from Liverpool Yossi Benayoun and they have been linked to numerous other players as well. Ancelotti had already told the media that they were looking for new players to add to their squad, though they still have not given out any specific names yet.
Ancelotti told to a sports channel that they had all of August to complete the transfers, so they were in no hurry and the strategy of the club has been made very clear. They are going to take their time and make the desired decision and a healthy one for the club and are looking for the best replacements that they can possibly get right now and are trying to strike deals that are both possible and affordable.
He commented on the matter by saying that so far they have added Benayoun from Liverpool and have lost Joe Cole, Ballack and Belletti, so they definitely need to replace them.
Chelsea are looking for a new right back, as they have lost Belletti and for that list the name Darijo Srna was mentioned as a likely candidate. He is twenty eight years old and is a Croatian player and plays for Shakthar Donetsk.
Still Ancellotti did not comment on the matter and still remains coy. When he was insisted for the names, he replied saying that he understands that journalists are very curious with these matters but he still has to stress on the matter that he just can’t give out names of the players that Chelsea is thinking of signing.
Although he did say that he does not want to deny that Chelsea is actually tracking a very interesting player. In addition, there is a possibility that Chelsea could be linked to Ramires, who is the Brazilian international midfielder from Benfica.
On the matter with the new recruits, Carlos Ancelotti tells everyone that this is a definite improvement and that Benayoun, the new recruit from Liverpool actually understands his tactics a lot better than the last star that actually left them, Joe Cole.
Ancelloti actually let Joe Cole go on a free transfer to Liverpool this summer and replaced him with Benayoun and he cost Chelsea something around Six Million pounds.
Even though a lot of people are saying that Chelsea should not have let Cole go but Ancelotti feels confident in his decision and hope that the Israeli player that he has replaced with the English one, will do better for him and the club in the future.
Even though it is known that Cole is a lot quicker and fast based but still Yossi is thought to be better, as he is a lot better tactically and Ancelotti says that he understands whatever is told to him.
Ancelloti actually said that Yossi knows almost everything about the game and is a very intelligent player. He also added that Benayoun and Cole both are good players and many people would have different views about the both of them but he is definitely happy about having Yossi in Chelsea. Yossi came from Liverpool this summer and is to play his first match with them against Manchester United.
