Chelsea are still looking to sign West Ham star Declan Rice this summer, a move which could boost their spending past the £250million mark. The Blues announced the transfers of Ben Chilwell, Malang Sarr and Thiago Silva earlier this week.

The Blues have already signed Chilwell for £30m cheaper than was quoted by Leicester, who also wanted £80m.
Chelsea are also still wanting to sign a goalkeeper this summer, after Kepa Arrizabalaga's poor season.
They've been linked with Atletico Madrid's Jan Oblak, but Italian transfer expert Fabrizio Romano believes Andre Onana or Nick Pope are more viable options.
"They have a list, they have a list for the goalkeeper," he told the Beautiful Game Podcast.

"They have to consider if they are going to sign Havertz, they can spend money for too many players like they did for [Hakim] Ziyech, they did for [Timo] Werner and they hope to do for Havertz.
"If they sign Havertz, they have a list and they will consider [Andre] Onana for sure.
"Another name is [Nick] Pope, at the moment it's so, so difficult to see a big name like Ter Stegen or Oblak to Chelsea.
"[Jan] Oblak and [Marc-Andre] Ter Stegen are really difficult targets but I think Onana is on the list.

"As I said for Havertz, I say the same for the goalkeeper. It needs time.
"They will not sign a goalkeeper tonight or tomorrow but they will consider many options and if we sign Havertz it's possible it will be a cheaper option for the goalkeeper."
