Chelsea have been looking for a new left winger this transfer window. They really need one or two new players for the left winger. Sancho, who was on loan last season, was sent back to Manchester United for a fee of €5 million, and Modric, who was banned for a while due to a doping scandal, has only one real left winger, George. It is impossible to go through the Premier League with such a young player alone and the Champions League, where only the best teams in Europe compete. That is why Chelsea tried to sign Borussia Dortmund winger Jimmy Gitton before the Club World Cup to fill the left winger they need. However, despite reaching an agreement with the player, Dortmund failed to reach an agreement on the transfer fee, meaning the move did not take place before the Club World Cup.

The club were unable to secure a genuine left-winger during the Club World Cup, with players such as Maduki and Parma being used as a substitute, so they signed Jamie Gitton, who they wanted during the World Cup. Gitton is now set to undergo a medical and be officially announced. Chelsea paid a very high transfer fee for the transfer. £55.5 million, which would be over €65 million. In today's market, this is a reasonable price. As per Chelsea's standard, the player will have a seven-year contract, which runs until 2032. Gitton had a trial with Chelsea's academy when he was eight years old, but was not selected. Gitton began his academy career with Reading. After almost seven years at Reading, he joined the Manchester City academy in 2018. In 2020, he moved to Borussia Dortmund.

Gittens made 49 appearances in all competitions for Dortmund last season, scoring 12 goals and providing four assists. That’s not bad news for a winger. However, Chelsea have signed Jamie Gittens for the left wing position they really need. Thank you to everyone who read this.
