Chelsea Transfer News: 14 Players Who Could Leave Stamford Bridge This Summer in Major Rebuild

• The upcoming window could be marked with several exits from Stamford Bridge
• Reports suggest as many as 14 players could be offloaded under a new club policy
• The Blues want to avoid a scenario where players have months left on their deals

Chelsea could reportedly flog as many as 14 players in the summer as they plan to turn their fortunes around ahead of next season.

The Blues have endured an underwhelming 2022/23 campaign, with the west Londoners facing a mountainous task to qualify for the Champions League.

The sacking of Thomas Tuchel back in September has not positively impacted their performance, with his successor, Graham Potter struggling to steady the ship.

Chelsea's spending spree

Daily Star reported on the January transfer window seeing Chelsea spend the most by a club as new owner, Todd Boehly embarked on a spending spree.

He is believed to have spent over £500 million since Roman Abramovich's departure, with around £300 mil spent on new signings in January alone.

Reports now claim Chelsea executives are plotting a mass exodus in the upcoming transfer window that could see up to 14 players offloaded.

The Blues are said to be trying to avoid a scenario where players are entering the final 12 months of their contracts.

The move would see the axe fall on several big names should they opt against committing their future to the club.

Which players could depart?

The Telegraph reports Mason Mount and Thiago Silva headline the long list of players said to be facing an uncertain future at Stamford Bridge.

Mateo Kovacic, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, and Cesar Azpilicueta are also on the list, along with Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang and Christian Pulisic.

N'Golo Kante, Kai Havertz, Ben Chilwell, Conor Gallagher, Edouard Mendy, Hakim Ziyech, and Kepa Arrizabalaga could also join these stars.

Havertz named Chelsea penalty taker

Sports Brief also reported on Potter naming Kai Havertz the club's penalty taker, following the departure of Jorginho to Arsenal.

The midfielder swapped Stamford Bridge for the Emirates Stadium, taking with him an impressive penalty record of 93 percent.

Ahead of the Blues' Champions League clash with Borussia Dortmund, Potter confirmed Havertz would step into that role.
