CHELSEA are ready to let up to twelve more players leave this summer after Malang Sarr’s £100k-a-week contract was ripped up.
The 25-year-old has left Stamford Bridge and has already found a new club – RC Lens.
It has once again been a busy summer transfer window for Chelsea who have already made a number of signings.
Their most recent is Enzo Maresca‘s former Leicester midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall.
And the Blues are not done yet as they continue to chase Villarreal goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen along with Nico Williams and Samu Omorodion.
But with all these stars potentially coming in outgoings at the club remain a theme of interest.
Conor Gallagher is said to have been subject to a second bid from Atletico Madrid.
A renewal of his contract is still up for grabs however as he enters the final 12 months of his current deal.
Trevoh Chalobah is another star who could be on the outgoing list after being left out of the squad for their pre-season tour of the US.
Djordje Petrovic is emerging as a surprise candidate to be sold only a year after he arrived from MLS club New England Revolution.
Goalkeepers: Robert Sanchez, Marcus Bettinelli, Eddie Beach, Lucas Bergstrom.
Defenders: Reece James, Malo Gusto, Josh Acheampong, Wesley Fofana, Axel Disasi, Tosin Adarabioyo, Benoit Badiashile, Levi Colwill, Ben Chilwell, Renato Veiga, Carney Chukwuemeka, Romeo Lavia.

BEST FREE BET SIGN UP OFFERS FOR UK BOOKMAKERS
The club are open to offers for the goalkeeper after doubts about his suitability for Maresca’s style of football.
A less obvious star who may not fit Maresca’s style is one of Chelsea’s highest earners, Ben Chilwell.
The Blues may sell him if a high enough offer is made but his injury record over the last three years could affect his price tag.
Kepa Arrizabalaga could be on his way to Saudi Arabia as Chelsea continue talks with Al-Ittihad after they turned down an offer for the Spaniard.
Regarding Romelu Lukaku the Blues are still waiting to hear from Napoli with talks likely to take place once Victor Osimhen‘s future is resolved.
Chelsea aim to secure permanent deals for Lukaku and Kepa, allowing them to retain loan move options for their emerging talents.
Lesley Ugochukwu is expected to go on loan after being withdrawn from Olympic football duty for France.
Harvey Vale was also left out of Chelsea’s first-team tour squad and the U21s’ tour of Portugal to facilitate a loan move.
Leo Castledine is also expected to leave on loan, despite travelling with the U21s.
And Armando Broja, Cesare Casadei and David Datro Fofana could all be sold if offers are accepted.
