Chelsea’s wild summer appears to be coming to a grand conclusion. With just one month left in the transfer window, the Blues have just one month to complete all of their deals as Thomas Tuchel looks to reshape his team.
Two players have so far been added by the German coach, and several have also left. Tuchel, though, lamented his lack of fresh choices, suggesting that there are still plenty more to come.
As a result, Chelsea is anticipated to make a lot more moves in the upcoming weeks. According to David Ornstein, the Blues are negotiating agreements for Wesley Fofana and Denzel Dumfries. According to football london, negotiations for a contract to sign Fofana this summer have already started.
Owner Todd Boehly has sought to incorporate some players heading the opposite way in some of the transactions being worked on thus far, which is a pattern. Here are a few players that may go in order to complete a deal for both Fofana and Dumfries, with the Blues seeking to send some players on while bringing in alternatives.

Levi Colwill
The Huddersfield Terriers were led to a Championship play-off final by Chelsea’s promising youth Levi Colwill last season when he was on loan from Chelsea, narrowly missing out on a return to the Premier League. His position in the team under Tuchel is unclear upon his return to the Blues.
Due of this uncertainty, multiple Premier League teams, including Leicester City, are reportedly interested in the 19-year-old. Chelsea might utilise him in their chase of Fofana if they wanted to sign the promising prospect.
Ruben Loftus-Cheek
Ruben Loftus-Cheek, a recent academy graduate, has found it difficult to establish a permanent first-team role in the Chelsea lineup. He is frequently utilised as a substitute or as a flexible option. His midfield skills may be important for a team like Leicester, which may lose some of its own midfield players in the transfer market.
Additionally, the 26-year-old has experience playing right wingback for the Blues and may take Dumfries’ spot should he decide to leave Inter Milan.

Ethan Ampadu
Ethan Ampadu is another player that is unsure about his position on the team. The adaptable defender made an impression when on loan at Venezia in Serie A the season before.
The chance of a departure exists since the 21-year-old has acknowledged that he could require some playing time before Wales’ World Cup campaign later this year. Whether it’s a temporary arrangement or not, his adaptability makes him a valuable asset for any team entering the new season.
