Last summer, Chelsea brought in Lukaku for "fundraising", selling out many of the new stars in the squad. Will this class of young people become the next Salah and De Bruyne, making the Blues regret it?
Tammy Abraham
Tammy Abraham, 24, moved to Serie A Roma this season to follow former Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho. In Rome, Tammy Abraham has made great progress, playing 30 games for the team in all competitions, handing over 17 goals and 4 assists, becoming the core of Roma's attack. In his contract, the Blues have a €70 million buyback clause that will take effect in the summer of 2023; will the Blues actually sign back the former academy product?
Fikayo Tomori
Fikayo Tomori, who was contemporaneous with Tammy Abraham, also officially left the Blues last summer to move to Milan, a European side. At Milan, Fikayo Tomori managed to beat former captain Alessio Romagnoli as the starter, having played 23 games for the Rossoneri this season, scoring one goal. Because of his outstanding performance, he returned to Southgate's England national team army; in fact, the level shown by Fikayo Tomori is more than that of Stones, who sat on the cold board at Manchester City, and Maguire, who was a big foreign at Manchester United, and it is really worth more national team time.
Mark Gei
In the past summer, Chelsea unexpectedly sold Marc Guehi, which was no longer on loan. After a successful season at Swansea City, Mark Gei moved to Crystal Palace for £20 million to become Vieira's defender. However, his performance is slightly rough, and it is still okay to deal with simple defense work; but there is still a lot of room for improvement in the use of the ball and decision-making. In terms of the youth training that left the Blues last summer, his performance was the most disappointing for the fans for the time being.
Valentino Rivramento
Because Reece James has long occupied the starting position on the right, many young and promising right-backs in the Blues academy have had to choose to leave, and Tino Livramento is the other right-back rising star who left Chelsea after Tariq Lamptey. Valentino Rivlamento went to Southampton for a £5 million transfer fee, during which time he played 19 games for the team, delivering a goal and an assist, and the performance was quite impressive. His valuation has also risen from N/A at the beginning of the quarter to 18 million euros. Chelsea can choose to buy him back for £40 million next summer, in fact, it is a good option to let Southampton "raise a baby" for £35 million.
