Chelsea Eyes Major Squad Changes Amid UEFA Rules

Chelsea, under new manager Enzo Maresca, are preparing for a summer overhaul as they manage a large returning loanee group including Axel Disasi, Joao Felix, and Raheem Sterling. Kepa Arrizabalaga may attract interest from Real Madrid, potentially influencing Chelsea's goalkeeping options. The club is targeting high-profile attackers such as AC Milan's Rafael Leao and Manchester United's Alejandro Garnacho, both valued at over €70 million, to strengthen the left wing amid Mykhailo Mudryk's provisional suspension. Chelsea are also competing with Arsenal for RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko, who has suggested he is open to a move. A possible return for former defender Antonio Rudiger is being considered to address defensive leadership needs. UEFA regulations may force Chelsea to revise their loan strategy, particularly concerning player movement with French affiliate Strasbourg if both clubs qualify for European competitions.
