The Russian-Ukrainian conflict and the boss is a well-known Abu, no way Chelsea's future is very bad. If Chelsea are unable to offer contract extensions, up to 10 players will be leaving at the end of the season. That includes defensive trio Azpilicueta, Christensen, Rudiger and a loanee, while Sauer on loan may also return to Atletico.
So once that happens, Chelsea will most likely prompt the return of some loan-out players, even though Tuchel may no longer be in charge. With the future unpredictable, Chelsea's starting line-up next season is likely to be:
Goalkeeper:
It now appears unlikely that the goalkeeper position will be affected too much. Mendi's contract is due to end in 2025, as will Kepa, while third goalkeeper Betinelli expires in 2023.
Baxter, a 23-year-old youth talent who is currently on loan, has been given a chance at Hull City and is likely to be in the Blues' squad next season.
Defenders:
With a lot of change, Azpilicueta, Christensen and Rudiger are all likely to leave. All three have been important players for Chelsea this season, having tried to sign a long-term contract with Chelsea but have not been successful.
Full-back Reese. James and Alonso can still play, and Chelsea hope Chilwell will return as soon as possible after the season. And in the centre-backs, Chabalo, Marang. Sarr and the likes of Thiago, who renewed their contract earlier this season, will have more playing time. Players such as Ampardu and Miazga, who have been loaned out this season, could even be seen appearing in the Chelsea squad.
In terms of midfield:
The only people Chelsea's midfield could leave are those who were not expected to play before the recent events.
Saul's loan from Atletico doesn't guarantee a permanent transfer, he spent some time making an impact after the summer arrived, while Mousonda, whose contract expired, has confirmed his departure.
The impressive Kante and Kovacic were able to stay, while Jorginho and Zik already had other options. However, chelsea fans are excited that Gallagher, who has performed well on loan for Crystal Palace, can return on loan.
Others who may return are Gilmore, Bakayoko and Drickwater.
Offensive End:
The offensive side is also a big problem. Perhaps the biggest concern for Chelsea is the inability to sell for a fee for players who are not doing as expected.
If the restrictions persist, they will not be able to eliminate Lukaku, who was super-signed, and Werner, who was also signed at a high price.
So, Chelsea's starter is most likely:
Goalkeeper: Mendy;
Defenders: James, Chloeba, Thiago, Sal, Chilve;
Midfielders: Mount, Kante, Mateo Kovacic, Pulisic;
Forward: Havertz.
