Chelsea Decide Mateo Kovacic Fate Amid Contract Renewal Saga

Mateo Kovacic will see his place in the club tested when Chelsea make the decisions on who stays and who leaves.

The former Real Madrid man joined Chelsea after a successful loan spell back in 2019 and has since then seen his place in the starting line up cemented by his ever developing performances.

Kovacic on one hand is still favored for a Chelsea extension considering his age but on the other hand, the 28-year-old could join the long list of players that will be recorded victims of the great shuffle of the Todd Boehly era.

A major change has been on, one which can’t be denied seeing, starting from the backrooms with major offices made available for incoming new staffs.

These changes won’t happen without affecting the team roster as well. A big sign is Thomas Tuchel shocking axe.

Chelsea have according to Fabrizio Romano decided to take some time study the situation of things and can only offer a renewal after they are done with the contract renewal sagas the board is trying to tackle.

Some players are rejecting the renewal offers they handed as they want larger amount and with interests from other clubs, Chelsea risk losing these players if their demands are not met.

N’Golo Kante is a player on this list and as sad it may sound, Chelsea are now already picturing life without the Brazilian. Kovacic could join on the exit train should Chelsea settle for an incoming.

The Blues are currently looking out for Defensive midfielders as they prefer to bank on the younger Midfielders like Mason Mount and Loftus-Cheek.
