Premier League clubs dominate lists of the highest wage spenders in European football and since Roman Abramovich’s takeover, Chelsea have long been a prominent figure in that regard.
In a changing marketplace, however, moving players this season has become a trickier task.
TOP STORY – WERNER, KEPA STAYING PUT AT CHELSEA
Chelsea are struggling to move Timo Werner and Kepa Arrizabalaga among other players due to wage demands, according to The Telegraph.
The Blues are also finding it tricky to move Michy Batshuayi and Ross Barkley, despite the club’s desire to accommodate potential signings.
Werner has seen the Blues search for attackers this off-season and could potentially be joining Romelu Lukaku out the door, while Kepa has notably been Edouard Mendy’s understudy.
Finding a suitable club for the two has the potential to be difficult, however, with both being brought in on lucrative wages.
