Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso wants to reduce the number of players in the main squad to 25.
According to the information of Idman.Biz referring to BBC, the Spanish specialist intends to significantly reduce the current 41-person squad.
According to the source, the «blues» will not have any problems with registration, but Alonso is ready to sell or lease a large group of players, as the Londoners will not participate in European competitions in the 2026/2027 season.
Therefore, during the summer transfer window, Chelsea will have to find a new job for 16 players, which will close in England after 24 days.
