After a poor start to the 2023/24 season, Chelsea eventually began to find their rhythm under Mauricio Pochettino with the Argentinian boss guiding them to a sixth place finish.
The Blues were unbeaten in their final six fixtures, winning five of them, and they are now guaranteed a spot in the UEFA Europa Conference League. However, if Manchester City beat Manchester United in the upcoming FA Cup final, the Stamford Bridge side will enjoy a place in the Europa League.
With the summer transfer window pending, attention will turn to how Chelsea can further boost their squad. But, the Blues must first address any potential Financial Fair Play concerns as their deadline looms.
While Pochettino, Todd Boehly and the Chelsea board turn their focus to balancing the books, here is how Football Manager predicts the Blues’s transfer window to go...
5. IN - Agustin Giay
Giay is set for a £7m move from San Lorenzo. The Argentinian 20-year-old has made 13 Copa de la Liga appearances for San Lorenzo this campaign, contributing two assists. | Getty Images
6. OUT - Axel Disasi
Disasi is set for a loan move to Liverpool. The defender produced a man of the match performance during the Blues 1-1 draw against Manchester City, making 16 clearances - the most by a Chelsea player in the league in eight seasons. | Getty Images
7. IN - Matteo Darmian
Darmian is set for a free transfer from Inter Milan. The former Man United full-back signed an extension with the Serie A side which should see him remain there until 2025. He has scored two goals and contributed one assist in Inter's title-winning season. | Getty Images
8. OUT - Robert Sanchez
The Blues keeper is set for a £30m move to Bayern Munich. Illness and injury has plagued the Spaniard this season, reducing him to just 16 Premier League appearances in 2023/24 campaign. | Getty Images
