  • Chelsea is expected to trim their squad during the ongoing January transfer window.
  • The Blues have already £100million this month on new signings, with Mudryk among the arriving players.

As many as five Chelsea stars could leave Stamford Bridge during the ongoing January transfer window.

The Blues have had one of the busiest transfer windows this month, with Graham Potter keen to build a team of his own that can challenge for titles.

According to The Mirror, the west Londoners have continued to spend big in the transfer market, having already parted with more than £100m this month.

Joao Felix and Mykhailos Mudryk top a list of players the club have signed this month, with the former joining on loan from Atletico Madrid.

Reports now suggest that Chelsea could be forced to offload several players before the window closes to balance their books, especially with financial fair play guidelines in place.

Which players could leave Chelsea?

The Mirror claims that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang headlines a long list of players who could depart Stamford Bridge.

The former Arsenal attacker has endured a frustrating spell with the Blues since joining them in the summer from Barcelona.

Auba has scored just one Premier League goal in a blue shirt and has hardly managed to fix the Blues' striking problems.

Hakim Ziyech and Raheem Sterling have also been backed to depart, with the former currently struggling for game time.

In midfield, both Jorginho and Ruben Loftus-Cheek are facing an uncertain future and could be shipped out.

Jorginho will be out of contract at the end of the season and his place in the team could have a bearing on Loftus-Cheek's future.

Chelsea fans fear for Felix

Sports Brief earlier reported that Chelsea fans fear Joao Felix will flop after deciding to wear number 11, which was last worn by Werner at the club.

They claimed the jersey number now worn by the Atletico Madrid star is cursed, after the German's underwhelming two years at the club.

Their fears may have been heightened by the fact that the Portuguese star was sent off in his debut match against Fulham, which Chelsea lost 2-1.
