As sure as it is towards the summer transfer window, just as surely there will be a big clean-up in the Chelsea squad. This time, it looks like the London club will keep the manager, but will purge the “last remnant” of players who are not part of the big Enzo Maresca plan.
According to the hyperactive transfer journalist Romano, the Chelsea management is aiming to get rid of up to eight players.
This includes players on loan, such as Raheem Sterling, Axel Disasi, Joao Felix and Kepa Arrizabalaga.
What about reinforcements? Here, Romano reports that striker is the top priority, as is Sporting’s Geovany Quenda and another winger.
In other words, a transfer window as normal for Chelsea. The difference this summer is that the club is finally in contention for a Champions League ticket and keeps the manager.
Things are brightening for Chelsea supporters.
