Where next for Chelsea's Delap and can he bounce back?
Chelsea striker Liam Delap has been made available for sale just a year into his Stamford Bridge career. Where will he go and can he bounce back?
Chelsea striker Liam Delap is set for a move away from Stamford Bridge after struggling to make an impact in his first Premier League season. The 23-year-old was signed from Ipswich Town for £30m following his release clause, but has only managed one league goal in the previous campaign, leading to his surplus status. Despite interest from clubs such as Nottingham Forest and Leeds, Delap's £50m asking price has been seen as too high.
Defenders Benoit Badiashile, Axel Disasi and Senegal striker Nicolas Jackson are also leaving for loan spells, highlighting the club's need to reduce its squad size.
