There are many players who are aware that their clubs’ careers are over when the transfer window closes, which is less than two weeks away.
They are limbo, forgotten, and unwanted.
Gianluigi Donnarumma (Paris St-Germain)
Manchester United’s Tyrell Malacia
Although he plays left-back for Manchester United in the past, Tyrell Malacia has previously been known to play right-back in situations where they have been called upon. Given that the Netherlands defender has only started 16 Premier League games while staying at Old Trafford for three years, he’ll enjoy playing any position.
Ben Chilwell (Chelsea)
Ben Chilwell, a left-sided England international who ended last season on loan at Crystal Palace, is in doubt, with reports that Chelsea are trying to find a buyer for the 28-year-old after selling for £45 million in 2020. Chilwell hasn’t played for Chelsea in the Premier League since April 2024.
Jakub Kiwior (Arsenal)
At the end of last season, Gabriel was injured, but the Poland defender for Arsenal made an impressive impression. Following the arrival of Spanish defender Cristhian Mosquera this summer, he may have to battle it to even be a backup option to Gabriel or William Saliba.
Oleksandr Zinchenko (Arsenal)
Manchester City’s Kalvin Phillips
Since joining Manchester City in 2022, the 29-year-old has only 16 Premier League appearances and is unlikely to have any more. The midfielder has been linked with a return to his former club Leeds United this summer after receiving loans from West Ham and Ipswich Town.
Yves Bissouma (Tottenham Hotspur)
Raheem Sterling (Chelsea)
Nicolas Jackson (Chelsea)
Since joining Chelsea in 2023, Nicolas Jackson has been the club’s first-choice striker for the past two seasons, but Maresca’s summer recruitment plans have questioned his future. Jackson and Chelsea want to receive at least twice as much as they did with Villarreal’s £32 million signing of the Senegalese international.
Christopher Nkunku (Chelsea)
Not another player for Chelsea? Christopher Nkunku’s days at Stamford Bridge appear to have been overnumbered now that Liam Delap and Joao Pedro have arrived. Two years ago, he cost the Blues £52 million. Will the Blues permit the France forward to leave for a reduced price?
Manchester United’s Alejandro Garnacho
Alejandro Garnacho is only 21 years old and has a career in front of him, but not at Manchester United, it seems. The Argentine winger may make a move to Chelsea.
