Next Chelsea transfer key to Mauricio Pochettino's plan as stars return to training

The cut and thrust of the transfer window is well underway for Chelsea and there will be few teams who have been as active as the Blues so far this summer. Tuesday saw David Datro Fofana move on loan to Union Berlin and Nicolas Jackson arrive for his first training session with the team to ensure the club's business has continued into July.

There has been no shortage of players to have departed Stamford Bridge, while Jackson and Christopher Nkunku have been added to the senior squad, Diego Moreira has also been added onto the first team ranks on the club's website. More players need to leave and more need to arrive, however, to shape the Blues' squad efficiently.

It was clear that the club had a plan coming into the window, and while new boss Mauricio Pochettino has enjoyed conversations with many Chelsea players, sporting directors, Paul Winstanley and Laurence Stewart have instigated the direction Chelsea have started in, with a number of clear priorities. The Blues also clearly have work to do however.
