Potential Summer Exits: Chelsea’s Departure Plans for Key Players

Revealing the Potential Departures from Chelsea this Summer:

1/ Kepa Arrizabalaga: The Spanish goalkeeper, despite his hefty salary, does not have a place in the current lineup and is likely to be offloaded. The reasonable fee is estimated to be around £15-20 million. Expected destination: ???

2/ Thiago Silva: There have been reports suggesting that after this season, the veteran defender will return to Brazil to play the final years of his career. Chelsea is also searching for a replacement target. Fee: 0

3/ Trevoh Chalobah: With his current performance not being exceptional and his academy background, it is almost certain that Chelsea will part ways with this young center-back to improve their financial statements. Estimated fee: £12-15 million. Expected destination: Lower-ranked teams in the EPL.

4/ Marc Cucurella: Before the season, it was almost certain that Chelsea would part ways with Cucurella as he had reached a personal agreement with Man Utd. Chelsea is also seeking another left-back, so the chances of selling Cucurella are high. Estimated fee: £20-25 million. Expected destination: ???

5/ Lewis Hall: Currently on loan at Newcastle United with an obligatory purchase clause. According to many sources, as long as Newcastle doesn’t get relegated, the purchase clause will be activated. Fee: £28-30 million.6/ Ian Maatsen: The young defender, who emerged from the Cobham academy, is struggling to find a place in the lineup under manager Pochettino, and his physique is too small to compete in the EPL. Chelsea is expected to seek £35 million (contract release clause) from this deal.7/ Conor Gallagher: Despite being a highly energetic and passionate player for Chelsea, with a decent performance, there is a possibility that Gallagher will leave The Blues at the end of the season due to the inability to sign a contract extension. The estimated fee will be £40-50 million. Expected destination: Strongly linked with Tottenham.8/ Raheem Sterling: With his exorbitant wages (double that of Enzo/Caicedo), it is clear that Chelsea expects more from this 30-year-old player. Chelsea tried to sell Sterling to the Arab world last summer and may try to do the same this summer.9/ Hakim Ziyech: The player is currently on loan without a purchase option, but Chelsea has long excluded Ziyech from their plans, so there is a high chance they will continue to sell him. Estimated fee: £5-10 million.10/ Armando Broja: The Albanian player is clearly out of place in Chelsea’s lineup and has had little contribution to the team’s style of play. Chelsea is expected to let Broja go if they receive around £20-25 million.11/ Romelu Lukaku: With the player’s waning enthusiasm for Chelsea since last year, it is likely that Chelsea will try to push him away. The desired price from Chelsea is around £37 million (contract release clause). Expected destination: Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦12/ The Warrior Malang Sarr: I beg you, go wherever you want.
