Probably because we can't sell any of last season's centre backs ... we've signed two for the future in Mbuyamba and Sarr, with Silva imminent, and Ampadu intent on staking a claim for a squad place, so I'd surmise the plan is for at least one (if not two) of Rudiger, Tomori, Zouma and Christensen to leave, if only on loan ... but no takers yet. Tomori loan to Rennes as part of the deal for their keeper Mendy would be one bet I'd make ...Pffft, don’t see why he shouldn’t bloody start for the first team.

Go on LOAN? He's likely better than all of our defenders.I hope he becomes world class one day, exciting prospect. I wonder where he will go on loan, Germany?
My money is on West Ham, as part of the package for Declan Rice !I wonder where he’ll go on loan. I hope it’s an EPL club.
I think its better to start fresh with a new thread. No point moving a thread over when its full of posts from before they were Chelsea players.Can we stop creating new threads and just let the mods move over the rumours thread.
Oooh I’d back that!My money is on West Ham, as part of the package for Declan Rice !
Underrated postIf we're going to bring 25 out of retirement then we may as well give it to the Argentinian Zola.![]()
No point in that he's been out on loan has been back for two years and he's clearly not good enough if we get an offer sell him.Loan christensen back to a german club to allow him to rebuild his rep and increase his value hopefully
Absolutley but in this market I doubt we will. A loan and hope the market is better next season.No point in that he's been out on loan has been back for two years and he's clearly not good enough if we get an offer sell him.
Speaking of Ampadu.. Look at the size of him now!With Ampadu sticking around I would personally go with Silva, Zouma, Ampadu and Rudiger and loan out Tomori and Christensen.
Loan Tomori to Rennes as a sweetener for Mendy.
Loan Sarr yo Bayer as a sweetner for Havertz
Loan christensen back to a german club to allow him to rebuild his rep and increase his value hopefully.
That should be ZoumaThe Official announcement makes me think he’s heading off to a club on Merseyside for some unknown reason...
