This summer could be one of the biggest in recent history at Chelsea. Following a period of existential crisis and ownership concerns, the Blues now have to tackle the challenge presented to them in their playing squad.
While there are obvious worries surrounding the backline after a few key losses, the attacking ranks are also a concern. Club-record signing Romelu Lukaku failed to hit the heights, but still ended last season as top scorer across all competitions.
The Belgian has since left for Inter Milan on loan, while a number of other forwards are linked with a move away from the west London outfit. Thomas Tuchel has the tough job of selecting the right players after the Lukaku deal, especially as the new owners are unlikely to fund many unsuccessful transfers for the long-term.
