Season 22-23 - Lets predict how are things at Chelsea?

I predict the squad stays mostly the same with the key departures 

Christensen to Barca

Rudi to Real

Barkley to any Prem team (Everton if they stay up, Palace as a replacement for Connor, Newcastle etc the list goes on)

Sarr leaves to literally any club 

Gilmour goes on loan to another prem team hopefully Lamps if he stays up

Gallagher, Colwill, Broja and Sterling join the first team squad and Hall stays too 

Koundé is signed for £60m 

Another cb is signed Pau Torres, Gvardiol, (Tomori and Guehi both unlikely though since they only just moved), maybe someone who's not on radar an unknown superstar in the making

Rice is linked all throughout the summer nothing materialises

Lukaku linked with a move away all summer eventually the option is a loan or he stays most likely decided in the final weeks of the summer

Linked with Tchouaméni potentially buy him depending on needs in other areas and competition from other clubs

Kanté and Alonso sign new deals for a couple more seasons 

Jorginho 50/50 stays or goes

Azpilicueta signs a 1 year extension and stays for another couple of years

More deadwood is trimmed

Kepa is sold for a reasonable fee of €40-45m 

We sign another wide player depending on the shape we decide to play either a wb or wide forward

If Jorginho is sold we sign a new DM or CM depending on how much we pay for other players will reflect how much we can spend here. 

We start the season well like this current one and put ourselves near the top of the table keeping pace with Liverpool and City for the first month. 

Squad looks like 

Mendy, Bettinelli and another back up keeper or two

Defenders: Azpilicueta, Trevor, Silva, Reece, Ben, Hall, Colwill, Koundé and perhaps another CB

Midfielders: Kovacic, Kanté, Gallagher, RLC, Jorginho (maybe), Mount,

Wingers: Pulisic, CHO, Ziyech and a new winger

Strikers: Havertz, Werner, Broja and potentially Lukaku

Edit: Almost forgot the new owners are Boehly consortium and like OP Marina and Cech remain in their current roles. 

Boehly ends up being a rather avid football fan and has a similar ownership model to Roman for this specific club. He sets at least £150m aside for summer budget with additional income from players sales to be added.
