Chelsea are still looking to complete a number of moves away from the club before the end of this transfer window.
It looks as if their business is going to go all the way to transfer deadline day, something Enzo Maresca was likely looking to avoid as he prepares for his first season as a Premier League manager.
The Italian is taking over the reins from Mauricio Pochettino after he lasted just one season at the helm at Stamford Bridge.
Something that was a staple of the Argentine’s time at the club was the fact that a number of youngsters were handed an opportunity to impress on the first team level.
Early in the season, there were chances for Alex Matos to feature under him, with Pochettino stating he had been really impressed by the youngster.
Alex Matos to move on loan this summer
After a loan away from the club to Huddersfield last season, it looks as if the same fate is set to meet him this season.
According to The Athletic, Matos is in the process of finalising another loan move away from Chelsea for the upcoming season.
It remains to be seen what level of football his next club will be at, however the fact he didn’t look out of place in the Championship last season suggests that he can at least make an impact at that level again.
Marc Guiu has chance to make impact
When it comes to youngsters who have a chance at making an impact on the first team this season, there is a real opportunity for Marc Guiu to prove he is ready to feature in the Premier League.
This likely comes down to whether the Blues strike a deal for another striker this summer, however the signing of Samu Omorodion is now off.
There are still reports that Victor Osimhen is a potential target, with Napoli keen on a deal for Chelsea outcast Romelu Lukaku at the same time.
