Chelsea have received a £16 million offer from the Saudi club Al-Ahli. The Blues are also close to agree on that deal with Al-Ahli. These are only a few of Chelsea’s flash sale candidates this transfer window. Several more players will be moving to other European clubs as well. Chelsea have a bloated squad of 31 talented players.
