Not only are Chelsea looking to secure one or two transfer targets this summer, they also have a number of contract issues with their own players that they need to conclude.

The issue of Lewis Bate, Tino Livramento, and Dynel Simeu are on the cards, with all three contracts set to end soon.
According to Goal, Chelsea are fighting to secure new deals for all three of them, with things not looking ideal for Livramento and Simeu in particular.
All three players are very highly rated within the academy and Chelsea would very much like to keep all three.
