Rio Ferdinand has warned new Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino that his squad is badly balanced after the club's early summer business.
The Blues have spent the early stages of the transfer window moving players out of Stamford Bridge. N'Golo Kante, Edouard Mendy and Kalidou Koulibaly have all taken up lucrative deals in the Saudi Pro League, with Mateo Kovacic completing a move to Manchester City.
England international Mason Mount, arguably the club's best player in recent seasons, is also set to join Manchester United. And Ferdinand believes those deals have left the Blues dangerously unbalanced heading into their new era under Pochettino's management.
