Chelsea 'struggling to shift five unwanted players'

Chelsea are reportedly struggling to find suitors for five unwanted players ahead of the winter transfer window.

Chelsea are reportedly struggling to find buyers for five unwanted players ahead of the January transfer window.

The Blues were busy over the summer in terms of incomings, and the club will seemingly attempt to trim a large squad when the winter transfer window opens for business.

According to The Express, the London giants want to shift Kepa Arrizabalaga, Marcos Alonso, Andreas Christensen, Danny Drinkwater and Baba Rahman at the start of 2021.

However, the report claims Chelsea transfer chief Marina Granovskaia is finding it difficult to drum up interest in the five players as clubs across the globe continue to deal with the financial impact of the coronavirus outbreak.

Kepa, Alonso and Christensen have all been involved for the first team this season, but Drinkwater has not been used by Frank Lampard, while Rahman has also not been in the manager's plans.

The Blues continue to be linked with Bayern Munich's David Alaba but will allegedly have to make the Austrian their highest earner in order to bring him to Stamford Bridge.
