Chelsea Must Sell £60m in Players for UCL

News summary

Chelsea faces mounting financial and regulatory pressure after significant UEFA fines for spending breaches, leading into the 2025-26 season. The club has secured summer signings, including Liam Delap, João Pedro, and Jamie Gittens, under coach Enzo Maresca. UEFA's Champions League squad registration rules require Chelsea to balance player acquisition costs with at least £60 million in outgoing sales to register new additions. Key players such as Noni Madueke, Christopher Nkunku, Joao Felix, and Raheem Sterling are being considered for sale, with Arsenal now showing interest in Madueke. Income from Chelsea's Club World Cup run cannot be used to offset registration requirements due to UEFA rules. The club must urgently align its ambitious transfer strategy with financial compliance to maintain Champions League eligibility.
