Chelsea had been busy in this transfer market from the very start. They have signed seven players this summer which includes big names like Werner, Thiago Silva, Ziyech, Chilwell, Havertz and Mendy.
So it is now time for some players to be loaned out or sold. Chelsea had already loaned out Ross Barkley to Aston Villa, who played a starring role as Villa humiliated Premier League champions, Liverpool, by a 7-2 scoreline. Then it was time for Bakayoko to be sent on loan to Napoli.
Now, on the transfer deadline day, Chelsea has sent another midfielder on loan, this time Ruben Loftus Cheek to Fulham.
The 24-year-old English midfielder wanted to move out in search of regular game time. After the big-money signings this summer, Ruben felt below the pecking order at Stamford Bridge.
Lampard agreed to send him out on loan but the clubs weren’t willing to pay the larger portion of his £150,000-a-week salary.
Now on the transfer deadline day, Fulham made a last minute move for the England international and has accepted Chelsea’s salary divison. Ruben will definitely add a lot of quality to the Fulham midfield and would help the club in their fight to stay in the Premier League.
