Chelsea's summer transfer window could heavily depend on their exits as much as their incomings as Mauricio Pochettino's squad starts to take shape. The new head coach inherits a team that was bloated after a number of signings in the past two windows that saw very few leave in their place.
The result was a side that seemed to make a host of changes every game in the hopes of finding a solution to their struggling form last season. The west London outfit finished 12th, having four different managers take charge of their matches, making the next appointment key.
The mid-table finish could enforce the reset that is needed for Pochettino to succeed, with a whole host of exits set for the coming weeks. N'Golo Kante is readying a move to Saudi Arabia on a free transfer, while the likes of Hakim Ziyech, Kalidou Koulibaly and Edouard Mendy have also been linked with joining the Frenchman's lead.
