Martin Subimendi would definitely improve Chelsea, but shelling out over £100 million for him raises eyebrows.
The Spaniard has a keen sense of the game, adept at finding the right positions and controlling the tempo. He could slot seamlessly into Xabi Alonso's plans, providing the Blues with a reliable playmaker in midfield.
However, with top-class midfielders like Moises Caicedo and Enzo Fernandez already at the club, spending big on another central midfielder seems unwarranted.
Before breaking the bank for Subimendi, Alonso should look to maximise the potential of his current squad. After all, Arsenal would be unlikely to assist a direct rival by enhancing their squad, especially with Subimendi tied to a contract until 2030.
Even if this transfer could deliver clear benefits, splashing out £100 million is hardly a savvy move by the club's hierarchy. Instead, that cash could be better utilised to bolster other positions in the team.
