As many as six Chelsea players are reportedly already engaging with their agents about potential transfers out of Stamford Bridge this summer.

And there are five other Chelsea players said to be considering their futures as well, even if they’re yet to take that step.

That’s according to Simon Phillips, who has named Enzo Fernandez, Tosin Adarabioyo, Wesley Fofana, Benoit Badiashile, Marc Guiu, and Filip Jorgensen as the players looking to leave the Blues.

The other names are not yet certain, but it could become clearer later, with Chelsea’s season just going from bad to worse at the moment.

Do Chelsea need a major clear-out this summer?

Chelsea have had a miserable run of results recently, being thrashed by Paris Saint-Germain to exit the Champions League, while they’ve won just one and lost three of their last six Premier League games, putting their top four hopes in serious doubt.

Liam Rosenior hasn’t been particularly convincing since taking over as Chelsea manager, and it increasingly seems like it was a bit of a rash call to sack Enzo Maresca.

Even if Maresca wasn’t perfect, he’d done well to deliver silverware and Champions League qualification last season, and Rosenior is relatively inexperienced for such a big job.

At the same time, however, some CFC fans may well feel that a few of the club’s recent managers have been let down by poor recruitment.

A lot of these players simply haven’t delivered considering how much was spent on them, so it might be wise to allow these aforementioned names to leave and for the team to undergo a major reshuffle.

That could then also give Rosenior more of a chance to put together a squad more in his own image, as well as a full pre-season to work with them, as taking over in the middle of a season like he has is never straightforward.

  1. just keep the players who wants to stay . re build no need to those rebels player’s . player’s can be replace but the ownership and the boards needs changing . needs systems and policies change . they should have replaced maresca with elite coach . Rosenior is too young to manage this group of egos . now it’s up to the owners and boards of directors how to rebuild this team away from egos players . anyway its the ownership and boards of directors fault .

  2. chelsea need mature centerback replacement of Garry cahill, John terry, thiago silver,,, chelsea need suplier replacement of fabrigas and mature serous winger ,, chelsea board to be blamed

  3. I think Liam Rossenoir was definitely the wrong choice,for CFC,.They the owners should of stuck with Enzo ,we won silverware under him,,and I think we would be in a better situation now if they had kept him.Regarding players who are not giving 100% and want to leave ,then Leave ,or stop moaning and do your UPMost for the club .
