A number of players are expected to leave Chelsea at the end of the season with the club simply needing to sell players to balance the books after seeing seven players arrive on a permanent basis in January.
Over the past two windows, the club have brought in a total of 14 new players (permanent signings), but have only sanctioned permanent exits for 12 players and the majority of them were not actually part of the first-team squad. So as it stands, Chelsea have a massive squad and it means Graham Potter has to leave a few out for every matchday.
Chelsea have a number of players who will be entering the final 12 months of their contracts with the club when the summer comes around. The likes of Cesar Azpilicueta, Mateo Kovacic, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Mason Mount, Christian Pulisic and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang all face uncertain futures at Stamford Bridge.
