Stamford Bridge’s newest addition, Noni Madueke, is one of three players whom Chelsea is ready to offload in January.
Mauricio Pochettino, Chelsea’s manager, implied last Sunday that the club may have to be active in January following their 2-0 loss to Everton. Chelsea spent £450 million on three new players during the summer transfer window.
Thanks to their loss against Everton, the Blues are now 12th in Premier League standings.
Liverpool now leads the league with 18 points.
A new striker is Chelsea’s number one priority, and they are interested in players like Ivan Toney of Brentford and Victor Osimhen of Napoli.
However, the west London club will have to sell players before they can spend as freely as they did in previous summers due to Financial Fair Play regulations.
After having trouble finding playing time under Pochettino this season, ESPN reports that Madueke is among those who may quit Chelsea.
The article went on to say that if the correct bid came in, a loan relocation could also be feasible.
It is believed that Ian Maatsen and Trevoh Chalobah will also depart from Chelsea.
Bayern Munich, Roma, and Crystal Palace have all been linked to Chalobah, while Borussia Dortmund has been linked to Maatsen.
