Chelsea will be put under immediate pressure next season when Mauricio Pochettino takes to the dugout for his first game. Not only is his opening fixture against Liverpool at Stamford Bridge, it could see a difference of 10 players from the 20-man squad from the final day of the 2022/23 season.
After a major clearout of players, one position that may not change at all is in goal. Whereas defenders, midfielder and attackers are all leaving SW6 on a near daily basis, the goalkeeping spot is no longer one that looks set for a big revamp.
Whereas at the end of last season it appeared that both Kepa Arrizabalaga and Edouard Mendy might be moving on, after three weeks of the summer window it is only the latter that has been sold. Kepa, on the other hand, is seemingly being trusted for another season.
