Jan Oblak, John Stones and three other players Chelsea are tipped to sign this summer

Chelsea have made perhaps the two biggest signings of the summer transfer window so far - certainly in the Premier League.

Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner will be playing in the famous blue shirt next season as Frank Lampard looks to build on his side’s fourth-placed finish.

It will be Lampard’s second season in charge at Stamford Bridge, and despite spending big money on the aforementioned duo, it seems like he’s not done quite yet.

With that being said, we’ve taken a look at SkyBet and have found the players that are likely to join the Blues - according to their odds.

The ultimate lowdown on Declan Rice

Nick Pope - 1/1

Pope was fantastic for Burnley last season and his performances have put him in contention to make England’s Euro 2020 squad next summer.

The 28-year-old’s failure to keep a clean sheet on the final day of the season meant that Ederson of Manchester City narrowly took the Golden Glove award.

However, it didn’t take away from the sensational season he had for the Clarets.

Dean Henderson - 9/4

Chelsea are just 9/4 to be Henderson’s next destination following confirmation that he won’t be returning to Sheffield United next season.

The Manchester United ‘keeper spent the 2019/20 season on loan at Bramall Lane and caught the eye of many with some splendid performances.

However, his position at United is still unclear, with David De Gea seemingly the preferred option despite some erratic displays in between the posts at Old Trafford.

Declan Rice - 8/13

Rice has been linked with Chelsea for a while now, as well as previous links with Manchester United.

However, the links with United have seemingly faded now and Stamford Bridge could be the West Ham midfielder’s next destination.

The 21-year-old has been a shining star in the Hammers team in recent seasons and SkyBet have priced him at just 8/13 to make the switch across London.

John Stones - 3/1

Chelsea are favourites to land the signing of Manchester City defender Stones over the summer window.

Stones is well out-of-favour at the Etihad Stadium, and is seemingly not part of Pep Guardiola’s plans going forward.

The former Everton centre-back still has plenty to offer in the Premier League, and his tremendous ball-playing qualities could suit Lampard’s system.

Jan Oblak - 3/1

The Atletico Madrid goalkeeper is well regarded as one of the best shot-stoppers in European football.

At 27-years-old, Oblak still has plenty more to offer, and a move to Chelsea could sort out Lampard’s goalkeeping woes.

Kepa Arrizabalaga was dropped from the first-team on a couple of occasions last season with Willy Caballero his replacement.
