Chelsea's tumultuous journey since winning the 2020/21 UEFA Champions League includes six head coaches, a staggering £1.2 billion spent on transfers, and a disappointing Premier League finish of 12th.

The 17-year-old Estevao Willian, who will join Chelsea after the Club World Cup, could be a significant rival as Chelsea might face his current club Palmeiras.
