Chelsea have been spending heavily on young players this summer and I think Marc Guiu is the one who most interests me. As is known, Marc Guiu is a product of Barcelona's La Masia academy and last season, if I'm not mistaken, he played several matches with the first team.

However, overall he is actually quite a promising player but indirectly it is also difficult for him to get a place in the first team so Barcelona let him be sold and Chelsea also want to redeem his clause which is quite cheap at 6 million euros. His position is attacker and it feels like if Enzo Maresca can develop his potential better then he could be a solution for Chelsea in attack. Marc Guiu also has a contract duration until 2029 and it is a long-term project for Chelsea for him.
Signing all these young players is getting too much in my opinion because not all of them will have the opportunity to join the first team. Most of these young players signed last season have not yet to have a playing time with the first team despite having potentials and some were sent on loans so what will happen to these new ones signed this season i think a lot of them will be sent on loan again.
The aim is only for the club's long-term investment and the players definitely know that, of course they will try their luck to compete with players who are more experienced than the young players, at least it can lift their mentality when they are united with the world's top players, if they succeed in breaking through to  first team then it will increase the player's selling value if it is far from expectations then the best option is to loan the player so that their flying hours remain stable so that the recruitment is not wasted, that is the reason why many clubs recruit young players.
