According to FourFourTwo via Tribal Football, Chelsea director Marina Granovskaia is preparing for a clear out of players in the coming days.

The Blues have spent over £200million signing Hakim Ziyech, Timo Werner, Ben Chilwell, Kai Havertz, Malang Sarr, Thiago Silva and Edouard Mendy.

Following the many arrivals this summer, Granovskaia is now focused on outgoing transfers with the likes of Antonio Rudiger, Fikayo Tomori and Marcos Alonso, leaving on loan or on permanent deals.

Ruben Loftus-Cheek is also a candidate for a loan move, while Jorginho and Kurt Zouma are more likely to stay for at least the first half of this season.
