At least 7 Chelsea players are open to leaving this summer

 At least seven Chelsea players are open to leaving Chelsea this summer should offers arrive, claim The Telegraph.

With the new takeover having finally been confirmed by the UK Government, the attentions now turn towards a busy summer of squad rebuilding for Thomas Tuchel and the new club owners.

Jules Kounde is set to become the first Chelsea signing in the Boehly era.

There will be a lot of work to do, and there could be even more work to do should Chelsea allow some of the players who are open to leaving head through the Stamford Bridge exit doors.

The report claims that the likes of Cesar Azpilicueta, Romelu Lukaku, Jorginho, and N’Golo Kante all have their futures in doubt. But as well as that, players such as Marcos Alonso, Kepa Arrizabalaga, Timo Werner, Hakim Ziyech, Christian Pulisic, Ross Barkley and Kenedy will all be open to moves if Chelsea receive bids.

There could be a lot of exits this summer, and that means a lot of arrivals as well to replace them.
