Ex-Blue fires warning to Chelsea over their conduct during the transfer window | OneFootball

Former Chelsea player Jody Morris has warned of the knock on effect the club’s treatment of transfer listed players will have.

Chelsea and their transfer business is never far away from the headlines and that hasn’t been any different this summer with the club coming in for heavy criticism for their treatment of Trevoh Chalobah and Conor Gallagher.

The Blues have a number of players they are looking to move on before the end of the window and have banished some of those to train with the development squad whilst they sort their futures out.

Morris sends warning Chelsea

Despite performing really well on his return from injury and signing a new long term contract less than two years ago Chalobah was left out of the club’s pre-season tour of America and banned from first team training, whilst Gallagher is currently training away from the first team with a move to Atletico Madrid in the balance.

Raheem Sterling’s omission from the match day squad against Manchester City raised eyebrows with the Blues looking to move the 29-year-old on.

This isn’t the first time that Chelsea’s treatment of players has been called into question with the Mason Mount situation not sitting well with a lot of fans at the time.

Chelsea’s treatment of transfer listed players has been called into question.

Former Blue Morris has warned his former club of the knock on effect their treatment of transfer listed players can have.

“It filters through the group. Even in the academy when I was coaching, we were taught the way you release a player, or the way you are looking after him once he’s maybe no longer need at Chelsea, can be a lot of the time how you acquire players in the future,” he told Rio Ferdinand’s podcast.

“That player will go on and talk about his experience of how the club treated them, the parents speak to other parents. It was a huge thing in the academy, and [with] Neil Bath particularly.”

Morris has got a point and Chelsea’s treatment of players won’t have gone unnoticed and could put players off from potentially joining the club.

It just feels the club lack any basic respect or decency for players they are trying to move on, who have given good service to Chelsea and deserve better.
