Ancelotti plans big changes to Chelsea squad

Ancelotti certainly is keeping himself busy this transfer window. Patrick van Aanholt is set to move on loan to Leicester City and Gaël Kakuta has just undergone a medical before he moves to Fulham for the remainder of the season.

It is also expected that Jeffrey Bruma will leave on loan this month as Ancelotti moves his squad around and may attempt another signing before the transfer window closes on Monday.

It seems most young talents at Chelsea fast-tracked into the first team are not ready yet as Chelsea plan to sell Fabio Borini to Parma before he goes out of contract at the end of the season.

Atletico Madrid have claimed that Chelsea made bids for Sergio Aguero and Diego Godin this week, but on Tuesday night, Chelsea sources denied these claims. It is true that the club had shown interest in the pair in the past, but they have moved on to other targets.

A club spokesman said: “We don’t comment on transfer rumour or speculation, no matter how wild.”
