Chelsea have announced the signing of United States international Caleb Wiley.
But the club are still looking to keep on adding to the side over the next few months and keep adding players to the side that they feel can take the club into a new era at Stamford Bridge, and Wiley has been signed by the Blues.
The 19-year-old has already made his senior debut for his country and is tipped for a bright future.
Chelsea posted: ‘Having established himself at senior level, Wiley was afforded 36 appearances during the 2023 season and made his USMNT debut in October 2023 in a 1-1 draw against Mexico.
‘He has again been a regular for Atlanta this term, with 23 appearances made across all competitions.
‘Wiley is currently with the U.S. Men’s Soccer Team in Paris as they prepare to compete in the 2024 Olympic Games.
‘Welcome to Chelsea, Caleb!’
We have been heavily critical about all the transfer deals that CHELSEA have been doing over the past few months as the players that have been signed will probably not make too much on an impact for the upcoming season.
Wiley is another one of those signings that is probably not even ready to make the move to one of the big clubs in world football – he has literally done nothing in the game and is now expected to move to Stamford Bridge and try to make some sort of impact.
He may be decent and could develop in the coming seasons – but like many of the young players that Chelsea have signed over the past few windows and been sold on or loaned out – that is probably the future of Wiley.
