The seven Chelsea players Jose Mourinho could sign this summer transfer window

Chelsea have just made their first signing of the summer transfer window in what is sure to be the start of a busy period for the Blues’ new manager Enzo Maresca.

With the free arrival of Tosin Abarabioyo on Friday morning, it marks a big swoop from Maresca just a few days into his role as Chelsea boss. While the deal had been lined up plenty of weeks beforehand, it’s still the first name of the new era at Stamford Bridge in what has been something of a revolving door in recent years.




The Blues have made some of the most high-profile moves in world football over the last year, including two £105m-plus moves for midfielders Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo, while Mykhailo Mudryk’s £62m move, a £75m swoop for defender Wesley Fofana and a £52m deal for Christopher Nkunku over the last few seasons have meant a huge spending spree and that’s certainly set to continue this summer.

With the Premier League’s Profitability and Sustainability Rules in place and the concerns around the club facing those, it’s inevitable that the club will need to sell some of their stars to balance their books. To do so, one of the club’s former head coaches could help them out.

Jose Mourinho was announced as the new Fenerbahce head coach earlier this week in a dramatic unveiling that saw crowds upon crowds welcome him with open arms. His new side have already been linked with a few of Chelsea’s stars so with all that being said, here are the seven players that could leave Stamford Bridge this summer in favour of a move to Turkey with ‘The Special One’…

The England international was linked with a move to Fenerbahce earlier this week, but those rumours were almost immediately snuffed out by the star’s team. However, after two relatively disappointing seasons at Chelsea under his belt, the Blues could look to get some good money for the star if there is any interest there.

Two years ago, Trevoh Chalobah looked like a piece of the Chelsea puzzle destined to help usher the club into a new, bright and brilliant future. Now, the 24-year-old could leave Stamford Bridge in the summer after rumours surrounding an exit over the last two windows.

How is this saga still going? Whether it means loaning him out early in the window or finding him a new club as soon as they can, Chelsea need to rid themselves of the Belgian international as soon as possible and sending him for a fourth reunion with Mourinho in Fenerbahce could be a solid move.

Long-term injuries have meant inconsistent first-team minutes for Broja, who was loaned out to rivals Fulham in January and then struggled to fit in at Craven Cottage. If the Blues are looking for a new striker option in the summer, it’ll all but condemn him to a move away from Stamford Bridge which could mean an easy swoop for Fenerbahce and Mourinho.

With the arrivals of Robert Sanchez, Djorde Petrovic and Gaga Slonina last summer, Kepa’s failed loan move to Real Madrid won’t help his case to get back into a Chelsea side he already doesn’t want to go back to. One of the easiest sales the Blues could make this summer if they’re willing to lose out on a bit of money.

Chelsea’s forgotten centre-back, Malang Sarr, might go down as one of the Premier League’s worst-ever signings. Having arrived at the Blues on a five-year deal in August 2020, he’s consistently failed to find first-team minutes and will hopefully be put out of his misery this summer with a move away from Stamford Bridge.

Despite his impressive end to the season under Mauricio Pochettino, Madueke could find himself on the chopping block this summer. While Mourinho has often preferred his established stars over youngsters, he would no doubt be an excellent manager for a player like the England Under-21s star.
