Chelsea reportedly name Florent Malouda, Yossi Benayoun and Paulo Ferreira among the list of players released this summer.

Chelsea have reportedly released high-profile trio Florent Malouda, Paulo Ferreira and Yossi Benayoun.

Malouda was expected to leave Stamford Bridge this summer following his exile to the reserve team last season, while the Blues have decided against renewing Ferreira's contract.

Benayoun, who has accused a group of Chelsea fans of aiming racial slurs towards him, has also been released, along with goalkeepers Ross Turnbull and Hilario, according to Sky Sports News.

Meanwhile, manager Jose Mourinho has hinted that captain John Terry will have to fight for his place in the team.
