Earlier this month, Chelsea recalled defensive duo Trevoh Chalobah and Aaron Anselmino from loan spells to boost their depleted options.
The West Londoners are also understood to be formalising a proposal for Manchester United winger Alejandro Garnacho, while several fringe players could depart in search of minutes.
Chelsea travel to face Manchester City in the Premier League this weekend and ahead of the clash Maresca discussed potential business.
Asked what we can expect from the Blues before the deadline, the Italian said at his pre-match press conference: “We are always looking at situations with the sporting director, we will see if anything happens.”
Renato Veiga looks set to leave Chelsea with Juventus having agreed a loan deal for the defender. Joao Felix and Christopher Nkunku have also been linked with exits, having struggled for regular first-team football this season.
Bayern Munich are monitoring the latter, who has failed to dislodge Nicolas Jackson or Cole Palmer from Maresca’s side.
“With Joao and Christo, most managers only play one attacking midfielder. They are top players, I like both, they struggle because most of the time we only play with one attacking midfielder. I am not saying they will leave.”
