Mauricio Pochettino is still unsure who will be part of his Chelsea squad when he officially starts in the job on July 1. With the pre-season tour of America starting in just over one month, there is plenty of uncertainty in the air.
Although steps have been taken to make progress with outgoing transfers and decisions are being made to push forward potential incomings, the soft deadline of June 30 to account for early sales is fast approaching and nothing official is done. Other than loan exits for Joao Felix and Denis Zakaria, Chelsea are as they were.
Certain directions have been taken already with Mason Mount preparing for a move to Manchester United should he not agree to an extension while Mateo Kovacic is closing in on a move to the blue side of Manchester. Ruben Loftus-Cheek is a settled AC Milan boardroom away from an Italian chapter to his career.
