The Blues have splashed over €1.3 billion on new signings since Clearlake Capital became their new owners in 2022, yet they still remain one of the most active clubs in the market as they look to bolster Enzo Maresca’s squad ahead of the new season.

The Blues are preparing for their first Champions League campaign since 2022-23, although they are once again focused on signing young players, rather than experienced stars capable of performing at the highest level straight away.

Last summer, Chelsea signed the likes of Pedro Neto, Joao Felix and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, in addition to youngsters such as Marc Guiu and Omari Kellyman, while they sold Conor Gallagher, Romelu Lukaku, Ian Maatsen and several others.

This year, Chelsea have already secured the arrivals of Liam Delap, Estevao Willian, Dario Essugo, Mamadou Sarr, Kendry Paez, Joao Pedro and Jamie Gittens.

Eight players have departed the club permanently, including Bashir Humphreys and Marcus Bettinelli, while Teddy Sharman-Lowe has been loaned to Bolton Wanderers.

Chelsea’s potential incomings and outgoings

Despite the arrival of Gittens, the Blues remain interested in Alejandro Garnacho and Malick Fofana.

The club are also reportedly eager to bring a new central defender to west London, with Jorrel Hato and Marc Guehi among their list of options.

Meanwhile, Chelsea will sell a host of players this summer as they look to trim down their first-team squad.

Ben Chilwell, Axel Disasi, Renato Veiga, Lesley Ugochukwu, Armando Broja, Raheem Sterling, Carney Chukwuemeka, Djordje Petrovic, Alfie Gilchrist and Joao Felix are all expected to be sold permanently following loan spells away from the club in 2024-25.

Christopher Nkunku, Trevoh Chalobah, Noni Madueke and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall could depart too.
