Chelsea told they signed the wrong Leicester City player after Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall’s arrival.

Chelsea have had a pretty busy summer transfer window so far even though it is yet to really kick into action for others.

The 25-year-old reunites with manager Enzo Maresca after the duo played a key role in the Foxes making an instant return to the Premier League.

There will be many Chelsea fans who are questioning some of the deals they have concluded so far because they probably expected a higher calibre of player.

Dewsbury-Hall was a standout performer in the Championship, scoring 12 goals and supplying 14 assists from the middle of the park.

He has only scored three goals and supplied four assists in 59 matches in the Premier League, but he is more mature and a much better player now.

Despite that, Gab Marcotti feels Dewsbury-Hall might not be the answer for Chelsea and that they probably signed the wrong Leicester player.

The European football expert put forward the name of ex-Tottenham Hotspur star Harry Winks after he started every Championship game last term, bar one.

Marcotti pointed out that Winks is the one to play the midfield role Maresca wants, as this now puts in further doubt the future of Conor Gallagher, as he told ESPN.
