​Chelsea owner Boehly eyeing eight more departures

Chelsea co-owner Todd Boehly is hoping to trim the club’s squad in the coming days.

The American knows the team must shed off several players who want to leave, which would make room for incomings before the September 1 transfer deadline.

According to The Express, Emerson Palmieri could be joining West Ham United, while Marcos Alonso and Hakim Ziyech are also linked with departures to Barcelona and Ajax respectively.

Centre-back Ethan Ampadu is set to depart on a loan move, with Italy his most likely destination.

Wingers Callum Hudson-Odoi and Christian Pulisic both want to leave as well.

Chelsea are being linked to Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Frenkie de Jong, Rafael Leao, and other superstars late in the window.
