Seven Chelsea players are out of the game as Pochettino harshly orders the £160 million worth of talent to leave.

Chelsea is poised to release seven players under Mauricio Pochettino’s plan to elevate the club’s status as serious contenders for the title. This decision follows a recent string of defeats, leaving Chelsea in 12th place and intensifying scrutiny on Pochettino. Despite the backing from club owners, Pochettino aims to reshape the team, requiring further changes to the squad. Players like Noni Madueke, Marc Cucurella, Armando Broja, among others, are at risk of being offloaded to make room for new, higher-quality additions in the upcoming transfer windows. The focus is on acquiring a striker, with Victor Osimhen as a primary target. However, securing immediate deals might prove challenging, possibly leading to significant expenditures to bolster the team for a stronger second half of the season.
