Chelsea are in danger of incurring Financial Fair Play sanctions from the Premier League unless they can sell of some of their best players to raise some funds before June, according to financial expert, Stefan Borson.

According to Borson, the Blues’ current predicament might even lead to Chelsea having to sell big names like Conor Gallagher and club captain, Reece James, because of the enormous profit they may be able to yield.

He told talkSPORT: “We all know that the pure profits that you get from selling your youngsters off have no book value.

“So fine, but clearly to sell off your captain [James] and near ever-present player [Gallagher] to your local rivals [Tottenham] was an unusual situation.

“When we looked at that at the start of the window, we were thinking, ‘What’s going on there?’

“It’s not a big surprise that of all the people that didn’t bite at £50m-£80m, that [Spurs chairman] Daniel Levy sort of paused and said, ‘I’ll wait and see what happens thank you.’

“Because he knows that within the Premier League – particularly teams like Spurs – they understand Chelsea’s predicament when it comes to PSR Financial Fair Play for this season.

“And they will take advantage of that, and that’s what you’ve seen with [Armando] Broja, they talked about £50m-£60m at the start of the window.

“And he ends up going [to Fulham] for potentially zero – the loan fee might be zero if he plays every game.”
