The recent loss to Aston Villa will put pressure on Chelsea’s boss Enzo Maresca. Recently, Chelsea are suffering from a lack of consistency.
Someday, they turn up and produce amazing performances. However, someday, they are below average. In this way, winning a major trophy will be a far cry.
Also, the uncertainty around Maresca, especially since his name came out as the successor of Pep Guardiola, is playing a part in the recent slump of the Blues.
However, the New Year is approaching, and the January transfer window will begin in a few days. So, the Blues will be looking to cash in and trim their already bloated squad.
They have many players that Enzo Maresca doesn’t want to include in his plans. One of those players is Raheem Sterling.
The English star is not even a part of the Chelsea squad, and he is training on his own. Now, he could get a lifeline at Newcastle United.
There are rumours that the Magpies might want to sign him on a loan deal in January. The situation is also similar for Axel Disasi.
Barcelona showed interest in him. But the wage demand of the player has made the Catalan giants look elsewhere.
Also, Tyrique George is one that could leave in January for more game time. He will not get proper game time for his development at Chelsea.
That is why Enzo Maresca could sanction a loan move for the 19-year-old. So, it looks like Chelsea are braced to have a busy January transfer window with departures.
🚨 Chelsea’s priority in this transfer window is offloading players including:
🔸 Axel Disasi
🔸 Raheem Sterling
