Chelsea have been warned that the potential sales of two current stars could see the club lose its “soul”. Todd Boehly and co may look to raise funds following two transfer windows of big spending. The Blues have forked out over £600million since their takeover last year, while breaking the British transfer record on deadline day to sign Enzo Fernandez from Benfica.
Fernandez joined Mykhaylo Mudryk, Noni Madueke, Joao Felix, Benoit Badiashile, David Datro Fofana and Andrey Santos as January additions after a summer spending spree, while Christoper Nkunku and Malo Gusto have agreed deals to move to Stamford Bridge ahead of next season. A common complaint has been that Graham Potter’s squad is currently bloated due to the amount of signings, as a summer clear-out could be waiting at the end of the campaign.
Mason Mount and Conor Gallagher are two players that have been linked with moves away from the club, and the former’s contract situation is complicating his future at Chelsea. Gallagher was the subject of significant interest in January following Fernandez’s arrival, as teams could return and tempt him away from west London. However, Arsenal icon Paul Merson has warned the Blues against selling two of their Cobham graduates.
“I want him [Potter] to stay,” Merson wrote for Sportskeeda. “I’m not sure if he’s the one bringing these players in. I’m watching these players and I wonder whether these signings are better than the players they’ve got.
