Thomas Tuchel asks for other recruits at Chelsea

The German coach hopes to obtain further reinforcements for his London team, and in particular in defense.

Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel is targeting four new defensive signings.

According to the British daily Evening Standard, the German technician told his board that he wanted to recruit three more central defenders and a full-back this summer.

Central defender Kalidou Koulibaly has already arrived from Napoli for 40 million euros, but Tuchel does not want to be satisfied with this single arrival.

Chelsea are interested in PSG centre-back Presnel Kimpembe and are expected to revive their interest in another Frenchman in Jules Koundé. There is also the Jonathan Clauss track which has been mentioned in the press, but no concrete approach has yet taken place.
