Chelsea’s new owners have shown they’re not shy about making bold moves, even if it doesn’t sit well with every fan.
Unpopular Moves Among the Fanbase
In the process of pushing their ambitious project forward, the owners have occasionally ruffled feathers among sections of the Chelsea fanbase.
The Conor Gallagher Transfer Saga
A prime example is how the fans reacted to Conor Gallagher’s potential departure. Over the summer, there was a significant push to sell him, which didn’t go unnoticed by the supporters. In the end, he ended up at Atletico Madrid, with Joao Felix arriving in a swap deal.
A Player Frozen Out
Reports at the time suggested Gallagher had been sidelined from first-team action, and now, rumors are swirling that a similar situation could occur with another player soon. Chelsea has let a fair share of talented full-backs leave in recent seasons, only to see them flourish elsewhere.
The Acheampong Dilemma
Lessons From Tino Livramento
Chelsea might be repeating an old mistake with Acheampong. Tino Livramento left the club without making a Premier League appearance, and now he’s on the verge of being called up to the England national team. At the time, former Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel openly admitted he didn’t want Livramento to leave.
Lewis Hall’s Success at Newcastle
Similarly, Lewis Hall is thriving at Newcastle United after breaking into Chelsea’s first team under Graham Potter. His success is another reminder of the club’s tendency to let promising full-backs slip away.
Chelsea has a history of losing out on talented defenders early in their careers. Letting Acheampong go could turn out to be another regrettable decision.
