There is plenty of uncertainty as to who will be available for Chelsea at the start of next season.
With an impending transfer ban coupled with the potential loss of Eden Hazard this summer there is sure to be plenty of changes.
It is looking increasingly likely that Hazard will join Real Madrid during the transfer window with reports suggesting the deal could be announced following the Europa League final with Arsenal.
The Blues will have to promote from within as they are due to be banned from signing any players for the next two transfer windows.
They are appealing the decision but may have to start planning for the worst case scenario.
Maurizio Sarri is also unlikely to be able to call on two of his brightest young talents who are set to miss the start of next season through injury.
Callum Hudson-Odoi ruptured his Achilles in April and had to have surgery. Even the most optimistic of timescales on his recovery have him missing the start of the season.

In the midfield three, Loftus-Cheek will be injured and Mateo Kovacic back at Real Madrid.
Mason Mount has been impressive at Derby this season with nine goals and four assists in the Championship.
Christian Pulisic will return from his loan at Borussia Dortmund and likely to go straight into the starting XI as a possible replacement for Eden Hazard.
Striking options will be limited without Olivier Giroud and Gonzalo Higuain while Hazard was also used up front this season.
