But spending money doesn’t always guarantee success.
The Blues sit fifth in the Premier League table and are struggling to cement European football for next season as they went down 2-0 to relegation candidates Ipswich Town on Sunday before a stunning strike from Jadon Sancho rescued a 2-2 draw.
While Ipswich laid out €150m on new players in 2024-25 after their promotion from the Championship, the cost of the squad they put out to face Chelsea is quite incredible in comparison to their opponents. Just take a look for yourself.
However, even this result (they’ve not won at Stamford Bridge since May 1979) might not save them from the drop, as they remain 12 points adrift of safety with six games left.
