Chelsea seal two new exits and step up fire sale to fund transfer moves

Chelsea have agreed a deal to sell young defender Ishe Samuels-Smith to Strasbourg for £6.5million, as they press ahead with a fire sale to balance the books. The deal for the 19-year-old follows a £43.7m deal for Joao Felix to join Saudi Arabian side Al-Nassr. Chelsea are also trying to offload Raheem Sterling, Ben Chilwell, Renato Veiga and Axel Disasi, as well as Carney Chukwuemeka, Lesley Ugochukwu and Armando Broja. They have already sold Djordje Petrovic, Kepa Arrizabalaga and Noni Madueke this summer. Samuels-Smith never made a first-team appearance for Chelsea in two years at Stamford Bridge after joining from Everton for £4m in 2023. Chelsea recoup most of the £45m they paid Atletico Madrid for Felix last summer. Felix made 20 appearances for the Blues last season, scoring seven goals following his summer move to Stamford Bridge from Atletico Madrid. Chelsea have spent over £200m this summer on Liam Delap, Jamie Gittens, Joao Pedro, Dario Essugo and Estevao Willian. They are closing in on a deal for Jorrel Hato and are interested in Xavi Simons. Chelsea are under pressure from UEFA to come out of this transfer window with a "positive transfer balance" as part of punishments for breaching financial rules.
