Although it may seem that the transfer market has closed, the truth is that in Arabia, it does not close until September 23rd, and Chelsea are studying the sale of two of their players.

Chelsea had a more than notable 2024-2025 season, qualifying for the current edition of the UEFA Champions League by finishing in the top five of the Premier League and winning the UEFA Conference League, thus becoming the first club in history to win all three continental competitions, added to the UEFA Europa League and the aforementioned Champions League.

However, at the beginning of that season, when Maresca was a newcomer to Chelsea, he had a vast number of players to work with, and it took several weeks before he could establish his block.

The coach made discards and the board placed them on the market until they formed that compact squad that performed so well in every tournament it played.

This summer, with the return from loan of so many players, the same process has had to be repeated, to a certain extent, and it has been carried out excellently, were it not for the isolated cases of Raheem Sterling and Axel Disasi, who are not part of the first team and have not been facilitated a move away from London, so they will try to use the wildcard of Arabia to fix it.

Forward Marc Guiu's Excellent Play Impressed Enzo Maresca So Much That He's Back With Chelsea Players have to really work hard in order to impress Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca with their efforts on the pitch. Forward Marc Guiu did just that and is now back with the Blues. What's the magic between Maresca and Guiu?

Raheem Sterling and Axel Disasi are not part of Chelsea's plans

On Sterling's part, 30, his decline is more than evident. Since he left Manchester City, his level has dropped so much that he stopped going with the English national team, in which he was a key player, and has been rejected by Arsenal, Chelsea, and Aston Villa, for whom there had been rumours during this window, but who ultimately did not dare to sign him.

Disasi, 27, on the other hand, did enjoy playing time with the Blues last campaign, but his cadence with the ball at his feet does not make him suitable for a system like the Italian's in which playing out from the back is paramount.

In other contexts of the game, Disasi usually imposes himself in individual duels due to his physical strength, so teams that practice a more direct game could be interested.

Raheem Sterling played 28 matches last season with Arsenal, exceeding 1100 minutes of play, in which he only scored one goal and provided five assists.
