Antonio Conte is set to take charge at Chelsea this summer and bring a start to what is being dubbed as a new era at Stamford Bridge.
After a disastrous title defence under Jose Mourinho and Guus Hiddink, the Blues have looked to the Italian to restore some pride to the club and help guide them back into European football.
For some, it can be a clean slate, a fresh start at the club as they bid to impress the incoming boss and hope to get their chance at the club. However, for some players, it can be a sideways step.
Conte’s history with implementing youth team players into the first-team is varied at best, with his time at Juventus and managing the Italian national team highlighting his reliance on older players.
We’ve highlighted several first-team and younger academy players that could benefit from a loan spell away from the club next season.
