In the past, Chelsea have lost some of their best players to Spanish giants Real Madrid.
In 2022, Chelsea watched Antonio Rudiger move to the Santiago Bernabeu on a free transfer. Before that, they were forced to sell Eden Hazard and Thibaut Courtois to the La Liga side.
Both players had entered the final year of their contract, giving the Blues little choice but to sanction sales.
