Transfer: Two strikers to leave Chelsea as Alonso names squad to face Sociedad

Nicolas Jackson and Liam Delap are absent from Chelsea’s squad for their final pre-season friendly against Real Sociedad.

This comes amid doubts over their futures at the club.

Jackson spent last season on loan at Bayern Munich, and several Premier League and European clubs, including Aston Villa, are keen to sign him.

Meanwhile, Como are considering making a loan move for Delap, according to Sky in Italy.

Danny Welbeck is also not in the Chelsea squad, which means Joao Pedro is the only striker available for Xavi Alonso at Stamford Bridge on Saturday afternoon.

Enzo Fernandez is on the bench amid transfer links with Manchester City.
