New Manager, New Squad

Chelsea is undergoing a massive overhaul of their squad as Mauricio Pochettino takes the reins. The Argentine manager is determined to resurrect the Blues after a disappointing season that saw them finish 12th in the Premier League.

Record-Breaking Deals

New owner Todd Boehly has wasted no time in splashing the cash, conducting a staggering amount of transfer business. In just six months, Chelsea spent a whopping £600 million across the last two transfer windows, setting new records in the process.

Recouping Funds

However, with Financial Fair Play regulations in mind, Chelsea is now looking to recoup some of the funds spent. As a result, an astonishing 25 players have already departed Stamford Bridge this summer, with another ten potentially following suit.

Sold, Released, and Loaned

Nine players have been sold or have left at the end of their contracts, bringing in a total of £216.5 million. Notable exits include Kai Havertz, Mason Mount, and Kalidou Koulibaly. Meanwhile, N'Golo Kante, Cesar Azpilicueta, and Baba Rahman have left on free transfers.

In addition, one player, David Datro Fofana, has been sent out on loan to Union Berlin, while Joao Felix and Denis Zakaria have come to the end of their loan spells in West London.

Released List

The release list consists of thirteen players, including Derrick Abu, Prince Adegoke, and Tiemoue Bakayoko. It's a clear indication of the major reshaping happening at the club.

More Transfers on the Horizon

As Chelsea continues its clearout, ten more players are being heavily linked with exits before the start of the season. Romelu Lukaku, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, and Christian Pulisic are among those who could be on their way out.

With Pochettino determined to build his own squad, it's clear that Chelsea's transformation is far from over.
