Former Chelsea manager, Roberto Di Matteo, has dropped a bombshell by revealing the two players he believes Chelsea must sign to reclaim their spot at the top of English football.
Di Matteo, who guided Chelsea to Champions League glory, emphasized the need for a new goalkeeper and striker to bolster the team’s chances of success. He pointed out that while Chelsea has a talented squad, they lack experienced players who have a history of winning in the Premier League.
The former Chelsea boss highlighted the importance of having a striker who can consistently score goals, suggesting that a 25-goal-a-season striker is essential for a title challenge. Di Matteo also stressed the need for a reliable goalkeeper with a commanding presence to instill confidence in the backline.
Specifically, Di Matteo named Emi Martinez from Aston Villa as the ideal candidate for the goalkeeper position, praising Martinez’s winning mentality and leadership qualities. For the striker role, he mentioned options like Alexander Isak from Newcastle and Victor Osimhen, both proven talents who could provide the necessary firepower up front.
Di Matteo’s insights have sparked discussions among Chelsea fans and pundits alike, with many agreeing that strengthening the spine of the team is crucial for Chelsea’s future success. As the transfer window approaches, all eyes will be on Chelsea to see if they heed Di Matteo’s advice and make the necessary signings to compete at the highest level once again.
