Chelsea fans have long been worried about the direction the club is going under the new owners – now it seems like the players are starting to feel the same way,.

Comments in the international break from Marc Cucurella and Enzo Fernandez have revealed there’s discontent in the dressing room about this “project.” Just like the fans, it seems the players are starting to worry that major trophies are no longer on the agenda.

Chelsea promise big signings to top players to keep them onside

According to Nizaar Kinsella of the BBC, players have been told that the club are going to bring in big stars this summer to improve the squad:

“Privately, the club have assured Cucurella and captain [Reece] James – the latter during his most recent contract renewal – that signings with proven Premier League experience will arrive at centre‑back, central midfield and in attacking areas.”

Will that be enough to keep everyone believing? We will have to wait and see. But certainly this feels like a summer they have to make a splash rather than sign more youngsters.
