Chelsea are gearing up for some serious changes. Not only have they already moved on 10 first team stars in the past seven months with more to follow, their manager has changed twice permanently in that time as well.
This is nothing new for the Todd Boehly-Clearlake Capital administration, but there is a move towards a young side. There is the very realistic chance that come the first day of the new season, a home test against Liverpool, just three of the team that started against the same opponents last season will once again be lining up.
Such was the nature of the calamatous end to last campaign, most of the players that have been sold this window had already been exciled. Kalidou Koulibaly was injured, Edouard Mendy less than an outside thought, Mateo Kovacic was a substitute, Joao Felix the same.
