Potential Chelsea XI if they sign their remaining summer targets.
A look at how Chelsea could potentially line up if they bring in their four remaining summer transfer targets, with the Blues spending big on stars from the Bundesliga, La Liga and Serie A…
GK: Thibaut Courtois
Chelsea’s number one after a superb season last term, Thibaut Coutois remains as first choice in this strong Chelsea XI.
DR: Branislav Ivanovic
Continuing at right-back despite a poor start to this season, one would fancy Branislav Ivanovic to bounce back and have another strong campaign.
DL: Baba Rahman
A £20m target from Bundesliga side Augsburg, Ghanian starlet Baba Rahman looks like he could come in and replace Cesar Azpilicueta as first choice left-back.

DC: John Terry
Still club captain and first choice, John Terry is sure to remain a key figure for Chelsea this season, whoever is brought in.
DC: Antonio Rudiger
Another £20m target from the Bundesliga this summer, Stuttgart centre-back Antonio Rudiger could also be brought in to help the club’s defence, possibly replacing Gary Cahill as first choice.
DM: Nemanja Matic
One of the best defensive midfielders in Europe at the moment, Nemanja Matic is sure to keep his place at the heart of Chelsea’s midfield engine room.
MC: Cesc Fabregas
Despite a recent dip in form, Cesc Fabregas should continue as one of the Blues’ main men in the middle of the park in 2015/16.
MC: Koke
An ambitious target from Atletico Madrid, Koke could be an ideal long-term heir to Fabregas’ place in the team, but would also make a superb partner for his fellow Spaniard this season.
FR: Jose Callejon
A fine goalscoring winger who played under Jose Mourinho at Real Madrid, Napoli star and Arsenal target Jose Callejon is an £18m target for the Premier League champions this summer and would be an upgrade on the likes of Willian and Juan Cuadrado.
FL: Eden Hazard
Chelsea’s best player, Eden Hazard should keep his place in the team on the left-hand side of a front three.
FC: Diego Costa
Top scorer for Chelsea last season, Diego Costa leads an exciting new-look attacking trio that should have little trouble retaining the title.
