Chelsea make FIVE players available for January transfers including Man Utd target Chelsea are no strangers to trying to offload unwanted players – and the January transfer window will be no different as Enzo Maresca tries to trim his gigantic squad.
He has made just one appearance this season, in the 5-0 Carabao Cup win over Barrow, and still has two and a half years left on his £200,000-a-week contract – a fact that will make a mid-season exit extremely difficult, even after Manchester United considered a move in the summer.
He has continually made headlines for taking a brutal stance when it comes to discipline and will happily allow departures for fringe players in his second transfer window as boss.
There are at least five players who have been made available for transfer or a loan in January, according to BBC Sport.
Maresca has whittled down the squad to land on his core players, leaving many on the outside and needing a move in the New Year.
