Chelsea prepare January spending spree on trio!

Chelsea are readying January transfer moves for the trio of Alex Teixeira, John Stones and Marquinhos, according to recent reports. 

The reigning Premier League champions have endured a poor start to the current season, and lie in 16th position within the top-flight standings – form which subsequently brought Jose Mourinho’s second spell as manager to an abrupt conclusion, after the Portuguese native was dismissed on Thursday afternoon.

Reports in Friday’s London Evening Standard suggest that, in order to get their woeful term back on track, owner Roman Abramovich will sanction three signings in the winter transfer window – which opens two-weeks today.

Chelsea will go back in for their long-term target, John Stones, the Everton centre-back – who was close to sealing a deal to West London in the summer, only to see any deal break down, much to Mourinho’s annoyance.

Stones has been in fine form for the top-four chasing Toffees ever since Chelsea’s failed pursuit, with many tipping the 21-year-old to earn a place on the plane in the England squad for the European Championships in France.

Their second target, Alex Teixeira, has enjoyed a fine season for Ukranian side, Shakthar Donetsk, but is keen for a move to one of the big leagues in continental Europe, while PSG’s Brazilian, Marquinhos is highly-rated – as Chelsea look to beat several sides to his signature.
