2024 Paris Olympics could rock Chelsea's summer plans: explained

Chelsea face a dilemma ahead of next season as several players are likely to be called up for the summer Olympics, according to the Evening Standard.

The 2024 Paris Games' football tournament runs from July 24 to August 10, just a week before the 2024/25 Premier League season officially begins.

This poses a challenge for the Blues due to the tournament's Under-23 nature and the potential absence of key young players of the Stamford Bridge squad.

Malo Gusto, Benoit Badiashile, Lesley Ugochukwu and Wesley Fofana are eligible; Enzo Fernandez and Mykhailo Mudryk could be called up as well.

Pochettino rues lack of senior players in Chelsea squad — is he right?
