Chelsea’s revolving door policy is about to reach overdrive. Blues ready for a summer clearout with up to eight permanent exits—Transfer expert Romano thinks so too, and here are the frontmen youngsters who are likely to become the longest-serving players at the club. The situation is bad; Chelsea has an overcrowded squad and it is not long until the Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR) come in.
When Liverpool beat Chelsea in last seasons EFL Cup Final they called Chelsea “Billion Pound Bottlejobs” but in this seasons EFL Cup Final Liverpool’s billion pound squad lost to a team that hadn’t won a trophy in 70 years 🤔

Kid in a candy store x100: The recent transfer business of the club has been impulsive, expensive and without plan. The sugar high is far gone now, and the bill is due. And who amongst all that is likely to be packing their bags when the window reopens? It is time we have a look at the list of prime candidates for Chelsea’s clearance sale.
Raheem Sterling: The £50m Gamble Gone Wrong
Do you remember when Chelsea forked out £50m for Raheem Sterling in 2022? Easy to forget, his impact… yeah, subtle was a good word to use… In fact, the notion of them being willing to loan him to Arsenal last summer was so subtle.
Sterling, on top of eye-watering wages, has a knack for underwhelming performances and may be the first name on the chopping block. Raheem, sorry, but West London doesn’t want to.
Ben Chilwell: The Ghost of Champions League Past
One day ago, Ben Chilwell played an important role in Chelsea becoming Champions League trophy champions. Now? Enzo Maresca has forgotten his number, and he’s chilling at Crystal Palace on loan. That permanent move this summer makes too much sense given his hefty wages and Maresca’s indifference.
Joao Felix: Romano thinks A Luxury Chelsea Can’t Afford
Joao Felix is a machine you bought purely for the look, because that’s the type of coffee machine you desired to be associated with,during the sale. The Portuguese star never fully settled in at Stamford Bridge, and AC Milan—reportedly not too keen on buying him—will have to find another suitor. Fast.
