It is no secret that Chelsea's loaned out list can be longer than their squad list.
The Blues' business model has long seen them farm out a host of individual basis, some of whom improve and come back to stake their case, others are able to earn the west Londoners huge profits. This term it has been a mixed bag for those who've left Chelsea.
The club themselves have endured a difficult campaign and Graham Potter is still assessing his squad to gauge who is staying, who is going and who will feature regularly. That problem may only magnify this summer when a host of players return, but some will give him food for thought.
