Chelsea have invested a whopping 355 million euros in new players since the change of ownership. The group of owners around US billionaire Todd Boehly wants to radically rebuild London with all their might (and bulging suitcases of money). After twelve new players were brought on board, any sales candidates now have to worry about their place in the team and also about their future.
According to the ‘Telegraph’, Chelsea officials are attributing the current sporting crisis to the player staff rather than to boss Graham Potter. A dismissal of the coach is out of the question despite only one win from the past eight games. Accordingly, they want to thin out the squad at Stamford Bridge after the season. Especially on the offensive there is an oversupply after numerous commitments.
Does Havertz have to go?
The report also mentions possible names. Accordingly, there is a question mark behind the future of Hakim Ziyech, Christian Pulisic and Kai Havertz. Since the arrival of João Félix, a similar type of player as the DFB professional has been in the Chelsea squad. Should the Blues decide to buy the loan from Atlético Madrid, the air for Havertz is likely to get even thinner.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is also expendable. The ex-Dortmunder was rarely able to convince at Stamford Bridge after his summer change and most recently found himself on the bench. Chelsea would not put any obstacles in the way of a change given the high wage costs.
In addition, the Londoners would apparently also be willing to talk to Kalidou Koulibaly should a club from Serie A get in touch. The 38 million purchase from SSC Napoli has not been able to stabilize the defensive as much as it was in Italy. The plans for the upheaval after the upheaval are already in the drawer.
