In less than two weeks, the transfer window will close, and several players’ futures are, to put it mildly, in doubt.
Next month, where will Raheem Sterling be? Ivan Toney might quit the Premier League. Will Arsenal expand their roster?
We examine a few of the players who might be moving.
Before the Blues’ Sunday match against Manchester City kicked off, an hour beforehand, Raheem Sterling’s Chelsea future wasn’t truly in jeopardy.
Sterling may be looking to leave the team, as evidenced by his exclusion from the squad and a statement from his representatives asking for “clarity” over his status at the organization.
The former Liverpool forward would undoubtedly be sought after at just 29 years old. A possible transfer has previously been connected to West Ham and Crystal Palace.
Since arriving at Chelsea for a £50 million transfer from Manchester City in July 2022, he has made 81 appearances.
Ben Chilwell, Conor Gallagher, and Joao Felix might be busy at Chelsea.
It is understandable why there appear to be unrest at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea has added 11 players this summer for a total of £185 million, giving manager Enzo Maresca a group that includes more than 40 experienced players.
