Transfer: Chelsea battling to sell five more players (See names)

Chelsea is battling to sell five more players around Europe as they continue to balance their books in order to end the summer with a zero net spend.

According to the Evening Standard, the players are Harvey Vale, Alex Matos, Deivid Washington, Ben Chilwell and David Datro Fofana.

The Premier League west London club hopes to reach zero net spend in the coming days with transfer windows in Turkey, Greece and Belgium still open.

Despite the Premier League transfer window closing last Friday, Chelsea have continued to reduce their bloated squad.

The Blues sold Brazilian winger Angelo Gabriel on Tuesday.

Gabriel, 19, joined Saudi Arabia side Al-Nassr for £19 million.

His deal has brought Chelsea’s outgoing transfer business to £189 million.

Chelsea had spent £208 million on new arrivals this summer with the likes of Pedro Neto, Joao Felix and Kieran Dewsbury-Hall arriving on permanent deals.
