Chelsea are set to offload five players this summer in order to compensate for the £75 million outlay made at the end of the January transfer window to bring in Fernando Torres and David Luiz, according to The Sun.
Didier Drogba, Florent Malouda, John Obi Mikel, Jose Bosingwa and Yuri Zhirkov all look set to leave Stamford Bridge at the end of the season with Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich keen to cash in following the Blues' record-breaking transfer window.
A Chelsea source said: “There are a few big names and big earners whose performances have fallen short this season.
“If things don't improve there will be some notable casualties in the summer.
“The competition for places will be keener now and that should be a great motivation for everyone.”
Having just announced losses of £70.9m, Chelsea will be aware of Uefa’s impending financial fair play rules, which will ensure club’s expenditure is limited in accordance with their income.
