The summer transfer window has now closed, with Chelsea among the busiest clubs and biggest spenders in world football.
After two windows without signing a single player, the Blues made up for lost time by splashing well over £200m on the likes of Kai Havertz, Timo Werner, Ben Chilwell, Edouard Mendy and Thiago Silva. Attention will now switch to the January window and whether Chelsea will invest heavily again.
Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest news on possible comings and goings from Stamford Bridge.
Friday morning's Chelsea transfer talk news roundup:
Chelsea 'planning to sell trio for Declan Rice funds'

Chelsea are reportedly willing to listen to offers for Jorginho, Antonio Rudiger and Marcos Alonso during the January transfer window in order to raise funds to sign Declan Rice.
The Blues have long been linked with a move for Rice, who has starred for West Ham United and become an England regular since being released from the Chelsea academy at the age of 14.
However, West Ham are understood to be holding out for a bid of £80m for the midfielder - a fee which Chelsea could not afford during what was already a big-spending summer.
Football Insider reports that Frank Lampard is planning to renew his interest in Rice when the transfer window reopens, but that Chelsea must first secure at least two big-money sales in order to fund the move.
The Blues are therefore willing to listen to offers for Jorginho, Rudiger and Alonso, all of whom were linked with a summer move away but ultimately stayed at Stamford Bridge.
Jorginho has been a regular for Chelsea so far this season, but Rudiger and Alonso's first-team chances have been limited by summer arrivals Thiago Silva and Ben Chilwell respectively.

The father of Malmo defender Anel Ahmedhodzic has confirmed that his son has held talks over a move to Chelsea.
The Blues are understood to be lining up a £7.2m bid for the 21-year-old centre-back, who rejoined Malmo after making just one appearance during a three-year spell at Nottingham Forest.
However, Ahmedhodzic senior has claimed that his son's agent Markus Rosenberg is blocking a switch to Stamford Bridge despite talks with Chelsea transfer chief Marina Granovskaia.
"[Rosenberg] is not doing his job. He has told Marina at Chelsea that Anel is not going there," Mirsad Ahmedhodzic told Sportbladet.
"[Anel] wants to go abroad after the season finishes."
Ahmedhodzic's form since rejoining Malmo saw him earn a debut for Sweden earlier this year, although he has since switched citizenship and made two appearances for Bosnia-Herzegovina.
