Following their poor end to last season, CHELSEA will be anxious to make a huge move in the transfer window.
And the Blues are said to be confident of landing Manchester City star Raheem Sterling.
Deal with Kounde
According to rumors, Chelsea is in constant communication with Jules Kounde's representatives as they try to work out a deal for the French defender. Sevilla's centre back has been on the Blues' radar for over a year, but the Spanish club has refused to sell for less than £56 million.
Chelsea director Marina Granovskaia has been talking'regularly' with Kounde's team, according to Sky Sports writer Gianluca Di Marzio.
According to the Italian writer, "Marina Granovskaia has been in constant contact with Jules Kounde's camp, with the player keen on coming to Chelsea."
Tammy's turn has arrived.
Arsenal and Manchester United are allegedly interested in Tammy Abraham, but his representation may put them off.
The former Chelsea striker has rediscovered his form in Italy, impressing for Jose Mourinho's Roma. As Roma won the first-ever Europa Conference League, the 24-year-old scored 27 goals in 53 games.
Abraham, according to Corriere Dello Sport, is not interested in leaving Italy. They further claimed that his agent, Neil Fewings, is paid £345,000 for each transfer window Abraham remains at the club, which might be a further roadblock if Arsenal or United pursue Abraham.
Kai Spy.
Chelsea have been reflecting on Kai Havertz's achievements this season, particularly his propensity to score huge goals.
According to the club's website, he became the first player since Lionel Messi in 2021 to score the winning goals in both the Champions League and Club World Cup games this year. Aside from that statistic, comparisons to Messi are arguably unduly flattering to Havertz, who had a season of ups and downs.
He did score the 100th goal for Chelsea under Thomas Tuchel in the final day victory over Watford, but his total contributions are likely to divide Chelsea supporters.
Sterling or Dembele?
The argument is already boiling on social media among Chelsea fans after it was revealed that the Blues are interested in signing Raheem Sterling. The attacking player most frequently connected to the club this summer was Ousmane Dembele.
The Sterling announcement, on the other hand, changes everything, and Chelsea is unlikely to require both players.
While Sterling's recent scoring record is unquestionably better, Dembele would likely be less expensive than the £60 million City is reportedly seeking for the England international.
Last season, Dembele only scored one goal in La Liga, but he was limited in game time and might thrive with greater consistency in the starting lineup.
He previously worked with Thomas Tuchel at Dortmund, although the German manager is also thought to be involved.
It's time for Cesar to seize the opportunity.
wing-back for the Blues Cesar Azpilicueta is under pressure to submit a transfer request or risk losing his chance to join Barcelona.
This summer, the Chelsea captain wants to return to his native Spain. Barca, on the other hand, are growing impatient with the defender's inability to negotiate his way out of the final year of his contract at Stamford Bridge.
Thomas Tuchel, Barcelona's manager, stated that the two will get down and discuss his future, but that the deal must be completed swiftly.
Xavi wants the veteran right-back available for pre-season training next month, according to Barcelona boss Xavi.
The Spanish club has promised to find 'alternative solutions' to fill the void created by the departure of club legend Dani Alves, who has confirmed his second exit from the club.
In the next days, Azpilicueta will meet with Tuchel to try to reach an amicable separation deal.
