Chelsea were not the most active club in the summer transfer window, but they remain one of the favourites for the Premier League after so much success under manager Thomas Tuchel.
Romelu Lukaku was the standout buy, the £97.5 million ($134m) striker returning to Stamford Bridge and Tuchel's European champions seven years after departing for Everton.
The Belgian went on to star for Inter Milan last season and said: "I’m happy and blessed to be back at this wonderful club. It’s been a long journey for me: I came here as a kid who had a lot to learn, now I’m coming back with a lot of experience and more mature.
"The relationship I have with this club means so much to me, as you know. I have supported Chelsea as a kid and now to be back and try to help them win more titles is an amazing feeling."
Chelsea also recruited Marcus Bettinelli from Fulham and Saul Niguez on loan from Atletico Madrid, while Tammy Abraham, Kurt Zouma, Fikayo Tomori and Victor Moses were among the players to depart.
