Chelsea signs three midfielders with 300 million: Palmer 15 goals + Enzo 13 assists + Kessedo

Ball Push Network reported on May 26 that Chelsea defeated Nottingham Forest 1-0 in the final match and secured a Champions League seat in fourth place. The three-core midfielder Palmer, Enzo and Kessel made a lot of contributions. Three Chinese-Yuan-yuan gentlemen used their all-round performance of "goals + assists + defense" to interpret the value of the Blues' 285 million euros midfield investment, and also outlined the team's future central axis with a long contract of 6-8 years per capita.

23-year-old Palmer is the absolute core of the Blues' offensive end. He has contributed 15 goals and 9 assists in 45 games this season, and has won the team with 24 goals. Although he was trapped by the opponent's targeted defense in the second half of the season, his hot state of scoring seven consecutive rounds in the first half and the key goals against Manchester City and Arsenal fully demonstrated the potential of a "new generation of attacking midfielder". The value of 130 million euros + the configuration of 8-year long contracts demonstrates Chelsea's determination to regard it as the "core for the next ten years".

Enzo used the role of "midfield commander" to define the Blues' offensive rhythm. Among the 45 7 goals and 13 assists, 13 assists were the Premier League midfielder. His "dual core linkage" with Palmer to create 120 goals opportunities has become the soul of Pochettino's tactical system. When joining the 75 million euros, he caused controversy due to the "sky-high price". Now the Argentine proves that he is the cost-effective choice among the "billion-yuan midfielder" with data averaging 2.6 key passes and 88% pass success rate. The value of the

defense hub Kesaido is reflected in the invisible data: under the surface data of 1 goal and 3 assists in 44 games, the "Savager" attributes averaged 3.1 steals and 2.8 interceptions per game, making him the top midfield barrier in the Premier League. His highlight performance of 5 steals in a single game was even named "The Guardian's Best Defensive Midfielder of the Year". With an Euro of 80 million + a 6-year contract, the Blues successfully locked in the golden career of the Ecuadorian iron gate.

It is worth noting that all three contracts will be after 2030, and the Palmer contract period will last for 8 years (to 2031), showing the management's strategy of "operating transfers with youth training mindset" - using long contracts to bind potential stocks to avoid falling into the transfer trap of "high salary and short contracts". Despite the overall ups and downs of Chelsea's overall performance this season, the stable output of the three-core midfield cores has given Stamford Bridge hope for revival.

From "billion yuan parallel goods" to "Champions League ticket guarantee", Palmer, Enzo and Keserdo completed the title in one season. When the Blues return to the Champions League stage next season, this full-coverage midfield combination of "goals + assists + defense" may become a key puzzle for typing into the trophy. And their long-term contract story has just begun to be written.
