🚨 Matt Law reveals the true roles of Chelsea’s Sporting directors as Chelsea believe there is an mis understanding. Winstanley - NOT responsible for identifying targets. His role is the delivery of targets, contracts and sales, as well as medical and player support. Stewart - Budget planning and style of play, as well as medical. Shields - Identifying targets through scouting, as well as planning the first team squad. Heavily involved with loans, too. Jewell - Squad identification and scouting, but both Chelsea and Strasbourg. Fallows - Data, scouting and background checks on players, an area which Chelsea are likely to lean heavily on this summer.
[🟢] NEW: Xabi Alonso is expected to arrive in the summer. Michael Edwards has kept the line open ever since. Even during the successful 2024/25 season under Slot, who had taken over from Jürgen Klopp. Alonso’s agent, Iñaki Ibáñez recently confirmed concrete enquiries. [Axel Hesse, @BILD]
