It could prove to be a busy summer for Frank Lampard and Chelsea, with the Premier League set to make its return this month.
A date of June 17 has been set for the action to restart, which could see the summer transfer window clash with the end of the campaign.
That means the Blues may have to do their business while they look to hold onto their spot in the top four, and there could be plenty of ins and outs.
Here are the latest transfer rumours and gossip coming out of Stamford Bridge.
Real interested in Kante
Chelsea star N’Golo Kante is a target for Real Madrid, and the Blues could be tempted to sell the Frenchman, according to Spanish publication AS.
The report states that Kante “appears again on the horizon” for the La Liga side and the Blues could sell him to raise funds for other signings this summer.
Kante has reportedly been a long-term target for Zinedine Zidane, with his side set for a squad overhaul this summer.
Kurzawa lined up as Chilwell alternative
Frank Lampard will reportedly target Paris Saint-German left-back Layvin Kurzawa if Chelsea are unable to afford Chilwell, according to the Express.
Kurzawa is available on a free transfer this summer, and while the 27-year-old has previously been linked with Arsenal, Chelsea may be the only interested club able to offer Champions League football next season.
The Frenchman is believed to have already turned down an approach from Inter Milan because he has his heart set on a move to the Premier League.
Kurzawa has only started nine Ligue Un games this season, and with French football suspended until September he will not feature again until he leaves PSG at the end of June.
Osimhen asking price
Chelsea will need to pay a massive €80million (£71.9m) if they are to sign Victor Osimhen this summer, according to Football Italia.
They suggest Lille have stuck the massive transfer valuation on the 21-year-old in order to ward off interest this summer.
Fellow Premier League sides Manchester United, Tottenham and Liverpool have also been linked with the forward, who has scored 18 goals and provided six assists for Lille this season.
