Chelsea has just announced the signing of 17-year-old Jimmy-Jay Morgan from Southampton in a deal worth £6 million.
The Blues have blown every other side out of the water with their ludicrous transfer spending in recent months. Since taking the reigns from Roman Abramovich last year, Todd Boehly has funded a staggering amount of transfers totalling over £600 million.
On Friday, they announced yet another signing, unveiling young striker Jay Morgan.

The deal was completed on deadline day, completely under the radar for £6 million on a long-term contract.
The striker was part of the Chelsea academy but moved to Southampton in search of more consistent football but he is yet to make his full senior debut.
Despite this, Boehly has decided to bring him back to Stamford Bridge as a potential star in the making.
