3 Chelsea stars who could leave in January

Juan Mata

If reports are to be believed according to Telegraph, big spending French side PSG are reportedly interested in the Chelsea star. As Bleacher Report says: Since Jose Mourinho’s return to Stamford Bridge, the 25-year-old has found himself on the fringes of the first team—five times an unused substitute and occasionally omitted from the match day squad altogether. With Oscar playing the number ten role, and Hazard and Schurrle occupying the wings, Mata perhaps doesn’t fit in Mourinho’s plans. There is no doubt about Mata’s incredible ability, his dynamic vision, poise and mesmerizing skills.

One reason why Oscar might be preferred to Mata is due to the Brazilian’s willingness to track back and is extremely aware of his defensive abilities. However there is no doubt what Mata brings with him, that’s certainly assists being his trademark. Mata has recently earned match time and has gained Mourinho’s confidence, but a lucrative bid from PSG could see the Spaniard leave the Bridge which would also help Chelsea’s pursuit of Falcao financially.
