Chelsea make a mockery of FFP Rules;

[Charnwood]

Chelsea are dominating another transfer window.

This will be the third successive summer transfer window since the 2022 takeover by co-controlling owners Behdad Eghbali and Todd Boehly when Chelsea have outspent rivals, signed the most players and looked to offload those from the former regime.

A flurry of Friday transfer activity, including a £54m deal to sign Wolves forward Neto, means Chelsea look set to make 12 summer signings with an average age of under 21, spending £243m since June 14 and bulking up their squad to more than 50 senior players.

Some of those who have joined will go straight back out on loan and more will be sold before the 30 August transfer window deadline.

But many fans are wondering if this is one of the biggest Premier League squads ever assembled.

Since the Clearlake Capital and Boehly takeover, Chelsea have spent more than £1.5bn on transfers, increasingly with a younger profile aimed at future re-sale value, apparently stockpiling potential.

What a mockery this makes of the FFP Rules

Maybe they’ll loan us a striker given they probably have at least 8 of them maybe more.

I noticed that too. It seems like FFP only restricts smaller clubs. It really doesn’t level the playing field. I used to like Chelsea, but the current ownership has changed my perception of a once great club. They’ve incredulously fired two of the best managers in football and continue to pour more money on the fire. Chelsea are the perfect example of what’s wrong with Premier League football clubs.
