Chelsea are expected to offload more star names from their bloated roster in the January transfer window and Ukraine international Mykhailo Mudryk could lead the departures.
The Blues completed a host of deals in the final days of the summer market as they continue to try and meet their Profit & Sustainability Rules (PSR) target this season.
Raheem Sterling moved out on a season-long loan to Arsenal, with Conor Gallagher heading to Atletico Madrid, and Romelu Lukaku joining Napoli.

However, more moves are planned for the start of 2025, as Enzo Maresca looks to reduce his squad size for the second half of the campaign.
As per reports from Teamtalk.com, Mudryk is on a shortlist of players available for sale, after struggling for consistent form since his £88.5m ($117.5m) switch from Shakhtar Donetsk in 2022.
Mydruk managed just five Premier League goals in his first two seasons at Stamford Bridge and he does not appear to be a key part of Maresca's future plans.
Club sources indicate an exit in January is 'very possible' with Bayern Munich potentially open to renewing their loan interest from 2024 alongside links to Marseille.
Defensive trio Axel Disasi, Benoit Badiashile and Ben Chilwell could also be moved on in the mid-season market with Chelsea looking to mirror the £170m ($225m) in player sales they generated in the summer.
