With the transfer window open, uncertain reins over a number of Chelsea players' futures. The Blues are set for a busy summer and need to trim down their squad to mould a more manageable group for Mauricio Pochettino's arrival.
The likes of Mateo Kovacic, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Conor Gallagher and N'Golo Kante could all depart from Chelsea's midfield with the latter reaching the end of his contract with the Blues. There is no shortage of players further up the pitch who could also depart the club in the shape of Hakim Ziyech, Christian Pulisic and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and even in goal there is potential of a farewell from Edouard Mendy or Kepa Arrizabalaga. That is before even getting to the yearly formation of the loan army.
At the end of his lap of honour on the final day of the season, Kante said 'we'll see' when asked if he would still be at Stamford Bridge after the summer. While his future appears to be trending in one direction, there is still no definitive confirmation that the Frenchman has cleared out his locker ready to make the journey elsewhere.
