Six Chelsea stars at risk of transfer departure as Todd Boehly reaffirms Graham Potter backing

Chelsea have signed 12 players since Todd Boehly and the Clearlake consortium completed a £4billion takeover at Stamford Bridge. The Blues' total transfer spend in that time has surpassed £300million and could continue to rise before the January transfer window closes.

Graham Potter was appointed as Thomas Tuchel's replacement in September - but things haven't quite gone to plan for the former Brighton boss so far. Chelsea currently sit 10th in the Premier League table following their 2-1 defeat against Fulham, having already been dumped out of both domestic cup competitions after reaching the Carabao Cup and FA Cup finals last term.

The Blues have been severely hampered by injuries this season with Denis Zakaria becoming the latest player to be sidelined after picking up a thigh problem in the defeat against Fulham. The Swiss midfielder joins the likes of Raheem Sterling, Christian Pulisic, Wesley Fofana, Reece James and Ben Chilwell in the treatment room - but there are other issues that need resolving by Potter if Chelsea are to turn their form around.
