Christopher Nkunku and Joao Felix look set to leave Chelsea for goodCredit: GettyDespite the ultimately successful campaign, Enzo Maresca is braced to start next season with a new-look squad of fresh faces.Liam Delap is set to sign for £30million from Ipswich while wingers Jamie Gittens and Alejandro Garnacho are linked with a move to West London. But according to The Guardian, Chelsea are also looking to offload a hoard of unwanted stars in their squad.With a winger likely to arrive this summer, Noni Madueke – who scored 11 last season – is said to be on the market.READ MORE ON CHELSEAChristopher Nkunku and Joao Felix – who spent the second half of last season on loan at AC Milan – are other attackers up for sale.Nkunku arrived from RB Leipzig in 2023 for £52.7million in 2023 and scored 14 goals last season – but only three in the league.

Renato Veiga, Ben Chilwell, Axel Disasi are all due back from their respective loans but remain out of favour in defence.Meanwhile Wesley Fofana – signed for £70m from Leicester in 2022 – is also said to be at risk amid his injury struggles. Trevoh Chalobah was loaned out to Crystal Palace last summer after Chelsea failed to move him on permanently.
