Transfer deadline day: Could Raheem Sterling, Ivan Toney, Jarrad Branthwaite, Jadon Sancho, Romelu Lukaku and Scott McTominay be on the move?

It is little wonder there are signs of discontent at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea have spent about £185m on 11 signings this summer, leaving boss Enzo Maresca with a squad of more than 40 senior players.

You can’t keep everyone happy.

Conor Gallagher’s exit from the Bridge is surely still inevitable – although his move to Atletico Madrid remains on hold – while Ben Chilwell is another who could be looking for an exit after being left out of Sunday’s squad.

Other Chelsea players not involved in the Premier League’s opening weekend include defender Trevoh Chalobah and midfielder Noni Madueke.

With Maresca desperate to offload some of his squad, be prepared for a fire sale at Stamford Bridge over the coming days.

Striker Romelu Lukaku is another Chelsea exit that could happen this month – yes, he is still on the Blues’ books.

The 31-year-old has spent the last two years on loan in Italy and is now wanted by Napoli – a swap deal for Victor Osimhen is one possible option being heavily muted.

Another potential newcomer at Chelsea to keep an eye on is Atletico’s Joao Felix, with the Spanish club keen to include him in a deal for Gallagher.

Confused? You get the feeling there are plenty more twists and turns to come at Chelsea before the window closes.
