Chelsea goes to the Premier League season 2025/26 with an atmosphere of optimism around it. A strong end to the Premier League season saw the qualification for the UEFA Champions League before the back-to-back trophies sealed with the UEFA Europa Conference League and the FIFA Club World Cup.
On the back of this, hope will be high for another strong season at Stamford Bridge, with ambitions of a title challenge and a deep run in the Cup competitions to build on his success last year. The ability to achieve these goals will be a measure on which Enzo Maresca is assessed if he enters his second year in West London.
Transmission company
In accordance with recent times it has been a busy summer in Chelsea. The blues have looked to strengthen their front line, especially in the center-forecast position. To do this, Joao Pedro and Liam Delap have been accompanied by Brighton and Hove Albion and Ipswich Town respectively.
Winger Jamie Gittens also joined Borussia Dortmund, while Dutch defender Jorrel Hato passes from Ajax to strengthen the backline.
There are also a number of familiar faces that also left the house. Despite the fact that last season was last season, Noni Madueke, Joao Felix and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall all went further, while players who had been expanded in previous seasons, including Djordje Petrovic, Kepa Arrizabalaga and Armando Broja, also left.
A few more big names, including Nicolas Jackson, Christopher Nunku and Raheem Sterling, will still leave before the end of the transfer window.
Chelsea’s best XI
A big blow to Chelsea’s ambitions is the loss of Center-Back Levi Colwill for a long-term ACL injury. For this reason, for this reason it is expected to miss a large part of the season.
Given the short turnaround between the end of the last season and the team depth that the blues possess, it is also likely that there will be a good amount of rotation between players.
Here is the strongest line-up from Chelsea on the way to the 2025-26 season:
Goalkeeper: Robert Sanchez
Defense: Reece James, Adrabiyo for testing, Trevoy, the Chalobah, Marc Cucurela
Midfielders: Moises Caicedo, Enzo Fernandez
Attackers: Pedro Neto, Cole Palmer, Jamie Gittens
Center-Forard: Joao Pedro
