Soon to be sold by Roman Abramovich, Chelsea will experience many upheavals this summer. No less than 14 players have been placed on the transfer list by the leaders of the London club.
Will Kant leave Chelsea like Rediger?
The summer is likely to be very hectic on Chelsea’s side. On the verge of being bought by Todd Boehly, who will pay nearly 5 billion euros to put an end to the reign of Roman Abramovich, the reigning European champion, for one more day, will modify his workforce in depth. All in all, 14 players are uncertain of wearing the Blues tunic next season according to the Daily Mail.
Kant on transfer list
For three of them, mass has already been said. At the end of the contract next June, Antonio Rdiger reached an agreement to join Real Madrid. A departure already announced by Thomas Tuchel. also reached the end of his commitment, Andreas Christensen, little used in recent months, is expected from FC Barcelona. On loan from Atletico Madrid, Saul Niguez will not be retained after a failed season at Stamford Bridge.
Six other players, all under contract until June 2023, could flee due to their contractual situation. Cesar Azpilicueta et Mark Alonso asked for an exit voucher to return to Spain. Group executives, jorginho et N’Golo Kant will not be retained. The Italian has clearly lowered his foot this season while the Frenchman is not spared by injuries. Kenedy et Ross Barkley want them to relaunch elsewhere.
You cash rcuprer
Some, unhappy with their situation, are also looking for an escape route. Recruited for 80 M€, Kepa Arrizabalaga wants to find a starting position in a less posh team. This is also the case of Timo Werner et Hakim Ziyechpurchased for €53m and €47m respectively, who have never managed to convince since their arrival in the English capital in the summer of 2020.
Two other issues will have to be managed by London decision-makers: Christian Pulisic et Romelu Lukaku. The American, who arrived for €64 million in the summer of 2019, still has great potential but is barely exploding. As for the Belgian, recruited for 115 M€, he had a very complicated year. If he still wants to impose himself, a departure is not ruled out in the event of an interesting offer. In any case, Chelsea will move.
