Bookies Backing Chelsea To Complete Three Signings In Next Few Days

Bookies Backing Chelsea To Complete Three Signings In Next Few Days

It could be a busy week at Stamford Bridge

Despite winning the Premier League title a month ago, Antonio Conte isn't enjoying his summer, so far.

The Chelsea manager has yet to add to his title winning squad and has reportedly become frustrated with the lack of business that has been conducted at Stamford Bridge over the past few weeks.

French midfielder Corentin Tolisso was tipped to join the Blues, but instead swapped Lyon for Munich, signing for Bayern, last week.

However, Conte's luck may be about to change, with bookies slashing odds on Chelsea completing a trio of signings in the coming days.

Earlier today, Ladbrokes announced that they expect deals for Romelu Lukaku, Tiemoue Bakayoko and Willy Caballero to be completed within the next week.

If the bookmaker's prediction turns out to be accurate, it would represent a signal of intent from the champions, strengthening their squad significantly ahead of a domestic and continental assault, next season.



Lukaku, Bakayoko and Caballero have all been strongly linked with moves to Stamford Bridge over the last few weeks, yet no progress has seemingly been made, leading sections of the Italian press to report that Conte was unhappy at the club and could even turn down a new contract due to his frustrations.

It doesn't seem as though such drastic action will need to be taken by Conte, however, especially if Lukaku, Bakayoko and Caballero are all confirmed in the coming days.
