The blues have amassed a huge army of loanees in recent years, allowing some of their fringe first-team stars to go out and ply their trade across Europe.
It is a transfer model which has served the west London club well of late, with Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Ross Barkley returning from useful loan stints last season to become valuable members of Thomas Tuchel's squad.
However, there are some Blues outcasts who seem to have spent far too long playing elsewhere while still on their books.
From Tiemoue Bakayoko to Matt Miazga, Daily Star Sport have taken a look at six forgotten men you probably had no idea still play for Chelsea.
Tiemoue Bakayoko
After completing a £40million switch from Monaco in the summer of 2017, Bakayoko endured a disastrous debut campaign at Stamford Bridge, producing a series of below-par performances.
He was therefore sent out on loan to AC Milan a year later and has since sealed temporary moves to old club Monaco and Napoli before heading back to the San Siro in August.
