Chelsea face an important summer in the transfer market as they look to improve their squad further and appoint a replacement for Mauricio Pochettino.
The Argentine joined the Blues last summer, however he lasted just 11 months in charge and left by mutual consent on 21 May after a post-season review meeting.
Chelsea are now on the hunt for a replacement and have identified a host of different managers as potential options.
Ipswich Town's Kieran McKenna and Leicester City's Enzo Maresca are both legitimate candidates after achieving Premier League promotion last year, while the Blues are unlikely to re-appoint Thomas Tuchel despite his Bayern Munich exit.
Although Todd Boehly has overseen a spend of more than €1 billion on new players since arriving at the club in 2022, there has been no success to show for it, with the Stamford Bridge outfit finishing 12th in his first campaign as owner and sixth in 2023-24.
However, Chelsea continue to target a raft of promising young players, despite the evident need for more experience in the dressing room?
Napoli striker Victor Osimhen headlines Chelsea’s summer transfer targets, but the Blues are also looking at alternatives, and many other deals could well be completed in a bid to get their squad into shape.
In addition, they are also looking to sign a new centre-back following the confirmation that Thiago Silva will be leaving, while a deal is in place to sign Palmeiras wonderkid Estevao for an initial €40 million.
Our Chelsea transfer live blog brings you all the latest news surrounding the Blues, including exclusives from our own reporters as well as checking out what the other big names are saying (including the likes of Fabrizio Romano and David Ornstein).
The Blues are expected to see several players come and go, and the Stamford Bridge rumour mill is already in full swing.
