They got tired of signing and Enzo Maresca's plan in the winter market with Chelsea
Chelsea is set to change its transfer approach under Enzo Maresca this winter.
Chelsea are poised for a busy January transfer window as manager Enzo Maresca looks to reshape the squad. While the Blues are expected to make some additions to their squad, the primary focus will be on offloading players to balance the books and streamline the squad.
Carney Chukwuemeka Heading for the Exit
One player who is almost certain to leave Stamford Bridge is Carney Chukwuemeka. The 21-year-old midfielder, signed for a significant fee, has struggled to make a consistent impact and the club is looking to recoup a large portion of their investment. According to the Mirror, Chelsea are hoping to receive a fee of around €48 million for the young Englishman.
Other Departures on the Cards
Chukwuemeka is just one of several players who could be on their way out of Chelsea. Other names on the chopping block include:
- Ben Chilwell: The England international left-back has struggled for game time and could be moved on to free up funds and squad space.
- Cesare Casadei: The young Italian midfielder, who joined the club from Inter Milan, has failed to make a breakthrough into the first team.
- Alex Matos: The Brazilian winger, another young talent, has also found opportunities limited and could be loaned out or sold.
- Harvey Vale: The highly-rated academy graduate has been linked with a loan move to gain more first-team experience.
Maresca's Vision
Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has made it clear that he wants to build a squad that is both competitive and sustainable. Offloading some of the club's fringe players will allow him to bring in new players who fit his system and can help the team challenge for trophies.
As the January transfer window approaches, it is expected that there will be plenty of speculation surrounding the futures of these players. With a number of clubs interested in signing some of Chelsea's talented youngsters, it is likely that the Blues will be able to generate significant funds from player sales.
