Chelsea are reportedly willing to sell six players this summer in order to fund a move for Bayer Leverkusen star Kai Havertz.
The Blues have been heavily linked with the hugely talented Havertz, who is reportedly valued at £90million by Bayer Leverkusen.
According to The Daily Express, left back Marcos Alonso is amongst the players that could leave Chelsea along with Michy Batshuayi, Danny Drinkwater, Tiemoue Bakayoko, Kenedy and Emerson Palmieri.

Alonso and Emerson could well depart, especially if Chelsea look to strengthen at left back.
Batshuayi is well down the pecking order at Stamford Bridge, while Drinkwater and Bakayoko have been on loan to Aston Villa and Monaco respectively and appear to be surplus to requirements.
Kenedy, who has been on loan to Getafe, could see his Chelsea career come to an end.

Havertz, a Germany international, has been hugely impressive for Leverkusen this season – he has 17 assists and nine goals in 43 games.
The 21-year-old’s versatility is a key asset, too, as he can play as an attacking midfielder, out wide or up front.
Chelsea have already made two high-profile signings ahead of next season, with Timo Werner and Hakim Ziyech both joining the club.
