Villarreal signed Chelsea player Vega, and the transfer tug-of-war around the backcourt all-rounder has finally come to an end.

made 15 million in 1 year, and Chelsea became a "middleman"

In the summer window of 2024, Vega joined Chelsea for 14 million euros. Villarreal this time paid him 29.5 million euros, and the Blues made 15 million euros from him in just one year. Chelsea's management has completed such operations many times in the past two windows by buying low and selling young players in 1 to 3 years.

"Four Heavenly Kings" control the field, and the Blues' recruitment is invincible. Chelsea's first transfer window after changing the flag. Burleigh leads the recruitment, and many veterans such as Sterling and Kulibaly appear at Stamford Bridge. This was a very unsuccessful attempt. Qinghu Capital immediately took over the signing power, and Egbali formed a highly professional "joint director" signing group. Paul Winstanley (formerly Brighton chief scout), Lawrence Stewart (39 years old, formerly Red Bull Salzburg chief scout), Joe Shields (formerly Southampton chief scout and Manchester City echelon chief scout), and Sam Jewell (formerly Brighton chief scout) cooperated with each other, and the Club World Cup championship is the greatest recognition of their work.

In the past three seasons, the amount of transfer transactions completed by the "Four Heavenly Kings" has reached 2 billion euros. In addition to creating a strong Chelsea, Chelsea's "Four Heavenly Kings" have also reshaped the satellite team Strasbourg, and this young player has shown extraordinary competitiveness in the Ligue 1 stadium. Qinghu Capital has extended the contracts of four executives from 2028 to 2031, and they are considered key roles in the club's long-term development.
