Four Players Who Need to Leave Chelsea this Summer
As Chelsea’s spending spree continues, it’s easy to get carried away with the excitement of new signings, but it’s crucial to remember that departures are just as vital. To ensure a smoother summer, these four players need to pack their bags.
1. Romelu Lukaku
Lukaku’s return to Stamford Bridge was supposed to be a bright spot, but his performance has been a disaster. From upsetting fans to burning bridges with Inter and Juventus, this Belgian’s stay has been one to forget. It’s time for the Blues to get a decent fee for their trouble and let Lukaku find a new home.
Stats: 13 goals and 2 assists in 36 Premier League appearances since 2021.
2. Kepa Arrizabalaga
The question on everyone’s lips: can someone please take Kepa away? After a disappointing loan spell with Real Madrid, Kepa is once again relegated to the bench. While he may still have one year left on his contract, a fresh start would do everyone involved a world of good.
Stats: 33 saves in 11 appearances, conceding 16 goals in the current Premier League campaign.
3. Malang Sarr
Remember Sarr, the Cameroonian defender who accepted a pay cut only to find himself out of the picture? Well, it’s high time he finds a new stage to showcase his talents. His Chelsea situation is a mystery, but a sale would allow both parties to breathe a sigh of relief.
Stats: 1 goal in 16 Premier League appearances, an average rating of 5.8 out of 10 since 2021.
4. Armando Broja
The Italian-British striker’s career trajectory has hit rock bottom since his serious knee injury. His season-long loan to Fulham fizzled out, and his confidence took a huge hit. Broja requires a fresh start, new opportunities to redeem himself, and an environment where he can rediscover his mojo.
Stats: 2 goals in 7 appearances for Italy U21, a goal difference of -1 in the current Premier League campaign.
These departures can inject new life into Chelsea’s squad while also making way for exciting arrivals. Who knows, maybe that’s the boost they need to challenge for a top-four finish in the Premier League? Stay tuned to discover more updates from the world of Chelsea FC!
