Chelsea are planning a major roster upgrade during the winter and summer transfer window, Report informs referring to The Telegraph.
Telegraph Sport has been told that the possibility of sacking head coach Potter has not even been discussed internally ahead of Sunday’s game against Crystal Palace, but it is understood Chelsea will consider a squad clear-out if results and performances do not dramatically improve.
Expensive signings such as Hakim Ziyech, Christian Pulisic and Kai Havertz are facing uncertain futures, while, as revealed this week by Telegraph Sport, Jorginho may be allowed to leave when his contract expires and interest in captain Cesar Azpilicueta could be considered.
There is also the possibility of Chelsea cutting their losses on defender Kalidou Koulibaly if an offer arrives from Italy, while the club are unlikely to stand in Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s way if he decides he wants to return to Spain or move elsewhere.
The likelihood is currently that Jorginho will leave when his contract expires at the end of the season, although Chelsea might entertain bids this month if they are successful in their pursuit of a new midfielder.
