Since then, the American has spent just shy of £1bn on transfers as part of a major rebuild of the club's squad. It was confirmed over the weekend that an agreement had been reached for the Dodgers to acquire Shohei Ohtani. That will be the record amount earned by an MLB player since the Angels agreed to a 12-year $430 million (£342 million) with Mike Trout back in 2019. The January transfer window is looming, and based on comments from manager Mauricio Pochettino it looks likely to see more money spent. Chelsea have lost seven of their 16 Premier League games this term, in what is Pochettino's first year in charge of the club.
