As 2021 has proven, bundles can change at Chelsea but it is undeniable the current squad Thomas Tuchel possesses includes some incredible talent.

With a host of either young talent breaking through, others forging towards their prime, and experienced veterans maximising their talent.

In two years Chelsea supporters should expect the squad to look very different especially given the age of some current first-team members and contracts ticking down.

According to football.london, the Club captain Cesar Azpilicueta is coming close to the end of his Stamford Bridge career which will be a massive blow given his incredible levels of consistency since signing in 2012.

European defensive titan Thiago Silva edging towards his 40s still playing at an elite level proves his incredible mind but should be predicted to depart by at least 2023. jamb result

The report has it that Both N’Golo Kante and Jorginho are also entering their 30s and have current contracts running down with Chelsea already scouring the market for potential replacements.

The contract tussle with defensive duo Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rudiger is yet to be resolved with fans unsure of the future of both beyond this season.

Though Edouard Mendy would be 31 in two years time we all know a goalkeeper’s lifespan at the top level is radically different to outfield players.

Mendy has become one the best keepers in Europe over the course of 18 months in west London and unless he massively drops form, expect him to keep first spot for a while.

Excellent wingbacks for Tuchel but both Reece James and Ben Chilwell have previously shown their equal quality in a four-man defence for Chelsea.

Their energy, ability on the ball, and productivity in the final third, Chelsea have fullbacks perfectly suited to a game that requires more from wide defenders.

The centre-back position is where we see our first signing in Jules Kounde from Sevilla. Chelsea got close in 2021 and I wouldn’t be stunned if the move happens in 2022 as the French defender develops into one of the best in his position.

Trevoh Chalobah extended his contract to 2026 back in October and the academy star looks capable of joining Reece James in a backline that’s 50% Cobham.

The central midfield is completely dominated by Cobham though.

Declan Rice to Chelsea feels a matter of when and not if from West Ham and feels the obvious successor to Kante and Jorginho.

His power, speed, and aggression are unmissable, but the elegant quality on the ball has made him of the most impactful central midfielders in the Premier League.

Rice’s best friend Mason Mount has become essential to his club since 2019 and the recent Ballon d’Or nomination is only going to propel the midfielder onto greater heights.

Chelsea would be foolish to pass a talent like Conor Gallagher by giving his influence for Crystal Palace on loan.

His late runs into the box bring visions of Frank Lampard and along with Mount, the pressing in attacking midfield would be insane.

Callum Hudson-Odoi has proved to be a creative certainty in his favoured left-wing spot. Although he has stiff competition, his talent, technique, and chemistry with others should keep him in high regard.
