Chelsea Legend Slams His Ex-club For ‘missing Out’ On Signing £70m Prem Trio – ‘I Have No Idea Why’Chelsea legend Frank Leboeuf has hit out at his former club after they “missed out” on signing three experienced Premier League players in the summer.
The Blues finished 12th in the Premier League last season and they have won just one of their first six league games this term. They travel to face Fulham at Craven Cottage on Monday night in what is a must-win game for Mauricio Pochettino’s side.as they looked to build a squad that could see them through the next decade’. It was also noted that this saw the Blues decide against signing James Maddison and James Ward-Prowse from Leicester City and Southampton respectively.
“They should have phoned me! Why is Ward-Prowse not in the squad? There are a few others, too, like Tielemans and Maddison. Chelsea missed out on these players as they could have served Chelsea well.”“I’d say the people in charge of recruitment are the most to blame.
