Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Hakim Ziyech could now join Callum Hudson-Odoi in training separately under Mauricio Pochettino at Chelsea.

That is according to the Telegraph.

So, what is the latest on Hakim Ziyech and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang at Chelsea? Let’s take a look…

What’s the story?

Well, the Telegraph believe it is possible that Pochettino will ask the African duo to train away from the main group when they report for pre-season at Cobham.

The Argentine doesn’t want to work with anyone who is not 100% committed to Chelsea, and with both hoping to leave Stamford Bridge, they may be banished from first-team training.

As aforesaid, Hudson-Odoi already has been.

The Telegraph believe the £120,000-a-week man has been training alone after telling Chelsea he would like to leave this summer.

According to the Guardian, Crystal Palace have been in touch with Hudson-Odoi’s representatives, while Nottingham Forest and Fulham are also interested in the England international.

Lukaku likely to join Aubameyang and Ziyech in training alone at Chelsea… if he shows up

Romelu Lukaku is another player who many would expect Pochettino to exile from the main group if he shows up at Cobham, given his strong desire to leave for Inter Milan.

However, the Belgian may not even give the Argentine the chance to banish him.

The Telegraph believe Lukaku is unlikely to come back to Cobham for pre-season training as he waits for Chelsea and Inter Milan to find an agreement over a permanent deal.

It is said that the Italian giants are preparing to make a £25m bid with bonuses taking the deal up to £35m in total, although that is still short of Chelsea’s £40m asking price.

Be sure to keep an eye on this situation, as we would be very surprised if Lukaku, Aubameyang, Ziyech and Hudson-Odoi are still at Chelsea next season.
