Mauricio Pochettino officially became Chelsea head coach on Saturday, but entered Cobham on Monday morning ready to tackle his first day of pre-season with his new players. The Blues have already signed six new players this summer, but only Christopher Nkunku and Nicolas Jackson will come straight into the senior squad.
There have been nine players leave the club including Kai Havertz, Mateo Kovacic, Edouard Mendy, Kalidou Koulibaly, Ruben Loftus-Cheek and N'Golo Kante. Pochettino has been tasked with overseeing an overhaul of the senior squad and Chelsea are expected to bring in a few more signings ahead of the 2023/24 campaign.
Moises Caicedo is seen as a priority for the Blues with talks currently ongoing over a potential deal. Brighton are hoping to receive a fee in the region of £80million for the Ecuador international with Chelsea leading the race for his signature.
