Tuchel talks transfers: 'We need couple more players'

"I have a figure and I think we need a couple more players in to improve the squad," Thomas Tuchel told Chelsea's media team when asked how many new signings he needs.

"It's always the dream of every manager that you find players in the same league and who adapt maybe quicker than other players but it's also a very individual process."

Chelsea have so far signed only Raheem Sterling and Kalidou Koulibaly. They are also said to be on the cusp of signing young American goalkeeper Gabriel Slonina.

The latest names to be linked with a move to the Bridge are Wesley Fofana, Denzel Dumfries and Marc Cucurella.
