If any of their players end up being worth those prices they’re unlikely to want to sell them anyway, because it means they’re actually a success.
Had a long read of all those articles so i can summarise below to help others.
Chelsea are cunts

The challenge with moving some of the players on may be the wages, although I suspect many of the newly signed won’t be on as big a wage as say Caicedo and Lavia as their signings were not as contested.
As for sales, they have a fairly large squad, with a more than decent youth system so potentially can cover FFP gaps in the first summer or two from trimming that down. For example, if Chilwell remains first choice LB, they have just promoted 2 from their youth set up and so could let Cucurella leave, they have 7 CBs and 10 forwards on the books.
After that, growth from being back in the CL and commercial revenues etc will presumably be needed if they are not to be punished for a breach or have a fire sale.
Aside from wages, the fees paid for will also be a hindrance. Take Cucurella for example, they paid $72m for him and there’s not many clubs who can match that fee. I get your point, they have numerous players and many can fetch a good fee. But will that be enough, in legitimate way.
They won’t need to, Chelsea can probably take a haircut on some sales and either make it up on others or through volume.
Seems like Ziyech is on the way to Turkey after a failed move to Saudi earlier in the window. With them stocking up so many players, are there any outcasts to be picked still in their overstocked squad? Just curious.
Broja had a good run in the league with Southampton a couple of seasons ago and was kept by Chelsea last season. I would imagine they would let him go. Also Lukaku didn’t agree a deal with Inter this summer. Hudsen-Odoi is still there too.
Yeah I believe Broja must be frustrated, he could have gotten alot more games in a mid table league club or even the Championship last season. Lukaku is got to be the best example of the ridicule of this Chelsea team and shows how ridiculous their recruitment has been for so long now.

Sky Sports reporting;
Striker Deivid Washington will have a Chelsea medical by Thursday ahead of his move from Santos worth £17m.
Alongside Moises Caicedo and the incoming Romeo Lavia, Washington would be Chelsea’s ninth summer signing. The list already contains multiple forwards, including Christopher Nkunku from RP Leipzig and Nicolas Jackson from Villarreal.
Chelsea are yet to decide whether they will send the Brazilian out on loan or keep him part of the first-team squad.
Broja is one of these 100% profit players in Chelsea’s books right? So he’ll be off, along with Gallagher before the end of the window.
Maybe we take Doucoure, and Palace can get Gallagher back in - he did well there.

Should have signed up 5 guys…
Oh wait they have.
What is Klarna, and do they have any midfielders for us?
Based on his description it sounds like where we got Arthur from
They have always been a shower of b***ards…
All Boehly is doing is carrying on the tradition for their scummy fans…
Read this recently, and it sort of tells ya the way it was, and the way it probably still is…

I’m somewhere between thinking that they think ffp is somehow not relevant following Abromvich’s departure or they are deliberately ignoring it in the hope that City’s breeches are thrown out. Anothe scenario is you build the club up ala City style and by the time the game catches up and sanctions you it’s too late, a monster has been created and cannot be undone.
It will be funny if they qualify for Europe this season (they should) and UEFA boots them out for breaking FFP rules.
