Chelsea pursues transfer departures for Tosin Adarabioyo and Mykhailo Mudryk

Chelsea is actively seeking to finalize the exit of Tosin Adarabioyo before the summer transfer window closes on Tuesday. The 28-year-old defender has fallen out of favor under head coach Xabi Alonso and has not featured in either of the club’s Premier League squads this season. Several clubs have expressed interest in the player, including teams from the Premier League alongside Marseille and Benfica. Benfica manager Marco Silva previously worked with the defender during his tenure at Fulham. Chelsea also intends to offload Mykhailo Mudryk before the deadline, with the club pursuing a loan move for the Ukraine international. The winger has expressed a preference to remain in the Premier League as Chelsea looks to reduce its overall squad size.
