Chelsea are heading into Graham Potter’s first transfer window at the helm next month. The former Ostersunds and Swansea City boss left fellow Premier League side Brighton and Hove Albion to take over the London club following Thomas Tuchel’s exit.
He has the opportunity to put his own stamp on the squad this winter with some signings ahead of the second-half of the season. In addition, the Blues may look to offload some players in January to help clear space and free up funds.
They could also loan out some youngsters to help them get some experience under their belts. Chelsea have a large squad which is something that they need to address.
Potter’s side are currently sat in 8th position in the table during the World Cup break and are eight points off the top four right now. Here is a look at 10 players who could leave Stamford Bridge...
