Chelsea being unable to qualify for next season's Champions League will cost the players money.
All the players at the club have performance related clauses as part of their contracts.
Per The Mail, the Blues are now facing the reality of a year without Champions League and possibly any European football.
After elimination from the Champions League at the hands of Real Madrid, Chelsea now face a year in the wilderness.
The source adds that all first team contracts include a wage deduction if the team is not in the Champions League for that given season.
Even new signings will have to accept those reduced terms, with salaries going back up if they do reach the competition in 2024/2025.
