Fabrizio Romano has revealed the names of six Chelsea stars who will be sold before the end of this month.
The Blues have been splashing the cash once again this summer, shelling out almost €300 million on the likes of Jamie Gittens, João Pedro, Jorrel Hato, Liam Delap and Estevao.
But to afford all these players Chelsea must sell some of their unwanted stars, and Romano names six big names who are on their way out.
What did Romano say?
“There are many players out of the project at Chelsea,” Romano said on his YouTube channel.
“Nicola Jackson is out. He will leave the club. There is still interest from Newcastle.
“On Chelsea, we’ve said about Jackson but there’s also Axel Disasi who will leave the club, Raheem Sterling, Renato Veiga and Ben Chilwell” Romano said.
“Veiga will still leave despite the injury to Levi Colwill.
“Christopher Nkunku is out of the project. Chelsea and Nkunku absolutely want to part ways. There’s interest from Germany. Let’s see what happens with Bayern, where he’s always been appreciated. He could be an option for Inter if they don’t sign Ademola Lookman, who is their priority. So there is some movement for Nkunku.”
Chelsea have already made decent money from their sales this summer, bringing in over €200m.
Noni Madueke to Arsenal for €56m, Joao Felix for €30m to Al Nassr and Djordje Petrovic to Bournemouth for €29m are their biggest sales so far.
The Blues go into the new season in good spirits after winning the Club World Cup this summer.
Chelsea beat PSG in the final 3-0 with two goals from Cole Palmer and one from Joao Pedro.
