5 players who could leave Chelsea this summer
The former Italy coach, Antonio Conte, has been unable to defend his Premier League title. This was after Manchester City clinched the trophy after their victory over Tottenham Hotspur last weekend.
This season, some of the players have struggled to find their form. They have been unable to perform on a consistent basis and the club eventually dropped points while playing against weaker teams such as Bournemouth and Watford.
Despite the team's inferior performances, a few players remain the top targets of other clubs from other leagues. The possibility of having no Champions League action next season will definitely be a consideration on the minds of the players who want to play at the highest level of European football.
As such, the Blues could find it difficult to retain some of their talented players in this upcoming transfer window.
#5 Thibaut Courtois
Chelsea's first choice goalkeeper may not be a Chelsea man next season. The Belgian has long attracted interest from Real Madrid who are eyeing a replacement for Keylor Navas. The 25-year-old is one of the best shot-stoppers in the world and he has just almost a year left on his contract with Chelsea.
Recent reports are also saying that Paris Saint-Germain are also keen to sign the goalkeeper. Courtois may be interested to join the new crowned Ligue 1 champions of the season, in order to win more titles and be involved in Champions League.
Chelsea are almost certain to miss out on Champions League next season as the team is now in 5th place, eight points behind Tottenham Hotspur who are in the 4th place.
