Chelsea 2023 January transfer window: Confirmed ins and outs

You have to begrudgingly respect Todd Boehly, I suppose. The bloke's got some serious cojones (and a lot of money) on him.

Chelsea's owner has laughed in the face of Financial Fair Play and, like a rich kid in Hamleys, brought a bunch of shiny new toys for Blues supporters to enjoy.

A busy summer in 2022 has been followed up by a gargantuan January, and there's no denying that he's trying his utmost to put Graham Potter in the best position to succeed at Stamford Bridge.

Here's a list of Chelsea's confirmed ins and outs in the 2023 January transfer window.


Chelsea January signings

Well, where do we start? Monaco defender Benoit Badiashile was the first major signing through the door before the club beat out several Premier League rivals for the lucrative loan signing of Joao Felix.

The club then moved with conviction to bring in Mykhaylo Mudryk from under Arsenal's nose in a deal that could be worth up to £100m when it's all said and done. The Ukrainian winger joined Chelsea on a mammoth eight-and-a-half year contract.

Another winger was signed in the form of ex-Tottenham academy starlet Noni Madueke before they wrapped up a deal for talented young Lyon full-back Malo Gusto.

Andrey Santos and David Dietro Fofana are two lower key signings that may have a greater say in west London further down the line.

  • Noni Madueke joined from PSV Eindhoven (£29m)
  • Malo Gusto joined from Lyon (£26.3m)
  • Andrey Santos joined from Vasco de Gama (£18m)
  • David Dietro Fofana joined from Molde (£10.6m)
  • Joao Felix joined from Atletico Madrid (Loan)

Chelsea January departures

It's been quiet on the departures front this month, but Chelsea are hoping to shift some of their current first team out before the deadline.

Jorginho, whose contract expires in the summer, is set to join Arsenal on an 18-month contract, while Hakim Ziyech could leave for Paris Saint-Germain and Conor Gallagher has attracted interest from several Premier League clubs.

The Blues' only confirmed departure at this stage is Cesare Casadei, who joined the club from Inter Milan in the summer. He's moved to Reading on loan. Gusto, meanwhile, has returned to Lyon for the remainder of the season.
