The last few weeks have been difficult for Chelsea fans, with an uncertain future hanging over the club amid talks of a takeover. It comes after Russian owner Roman Abramovich had his assets frozen by the UK government, putting the Blues under a special license allowing them to operate, but only under certain sporting circumstances.
It means that, at the moment, the club cannot make any transfers or renew any contract until a takeover bid is completed. That hasn’t stopped Thomas Tuchel’s team from linking up with a number of players as they prepare for a big summer.
Several players will leave as free agents at the end of the season, leaving the German with fewer options and a need for potential reinforcements. With that being said, we’ve taken a look at some of the latest Chelsea-related transfer rumours.
