All change at Charlton over the summer with plenty of comings and goings. Significantly Joe Gomez has left for Liverpool while boss Guy Luzon has added plenty of foreign talent including strikers Cristian Ceballos from Tottenham and Simon Makienok from Palermo while midfielder Ahmed Kashi has come in from Metz. Charlton have also added defenders Zakarya Bergdich and Naby Sarr so it should have more of a feel for what Luzon is all about. The Addicks finished mid-table last season, in a comfortable enough campaign but without much excitement. They will look to better that but much could depend on how well the new players settle in and how quickly they adapt to Luzon's methods.

Target


Charlton will look to the play-offs a their ambition.
