Enzo Maresca will unveil a new lineup for Chelsea this season with several new faces arriving over the summer, and the goal must be to challenge for the EPL title.
The Potential Starting Lineup for Chelsea
Filip Jorgensen, the 22-year-old goalkeeper, is set to replace Robert Sanchez and Djorde Petrovic as Chelsea's No1.
Skipper Reece James will slot back in at right-back if he can stay fit, while Marc Cucurella has become first-choice at left-back after his superb performances at EURO 2024.
Wesley Fofana and Levi Colwill could start at centre-half, with Axel Disasi and Tosin Adarabioyo as alternatives.
In midfield, Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo will be joined by new signing Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, who will look to forge relationships with his teammates. Romeo Lavia will also stake a claim for a starting spot.

Enzo Maresca has the tools to make Chelsea win again
New boss Enzo Maresca will focus on a settled starting XI, with a blend of youth and experience. Chelsea's bloated squad will be streamlined, with forgotten men like Romelu Lukaku and Kepa Arrizabalaga likely to depart.
