It was in May 2024 that the first links between Chelsea and Estevao Willian started to be reported. A deal to sign him the following summer was soon concluded, and since then Blues fans have waited patiently to see him unleashed. They cannot wait much longer. Supporters have been tracking the youngster ever since those first rumours, and the excitement has continued to build. Some really special moments - a first Brazil goal, scoring against Chelsea in the Club World Cup, some ridiculous displays in the Brazilian league - kept raising expectations further, but it felt like the last minute winner against Liverpool in the final game before the international break was the 18-year-old's real coming-out party. After the game, TV pundits around the world showered him with praise and he took his first major step from highly-rated talent to household name, at least in footballing circles. As talents go, you almost could not design one more suited to get supporters excited. A pure one-on-one dribbler who is not afraid to shoot and has the natural movement and instincts of a goalscorer, Estevao looks utterly fearless despite his age. The much repeated lines about needing to be patient with him and his development are made to look faintly ridiculous by just how confident and capable he is already. Manager Enzo Maresca is doing his best to protect the prodigy, but there is only so much he can do when Estevao continues to make such important impressions from the bench. For now, fans will be content to see him arrive as a game-breaking roll of the dice in the second halves of games. But if he keeps looking so much more dangerous than his rivals for minutes on the wing, it will only be a matter of time before the coach has little choice but to give him regular starts. CFC news

Also, they won't be as constrained by FFP or PSR rules because of their massive revenue. Tbh, spending money was never really an issue for them until Ratcliffe came on board and they began to dial back massively on spending.

Israel to halve aid into Gaza over slow return of dead hostages https://apnews.com/article/gaza-israel-hamas-hostages-ceasefire-10-14-2025-665a1cbe249f08c8513ceceaa04db201 TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — The fragile ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war was tested Tuesday as the slower-than-hoped return of deceased hostages from Gaza prompted an Israeli military agency to declare a “violation” of the truce agreement that it would respond to by halving the number of trucks allowed to bring humanitarian aid into the devastated territory. The United Nations’ humanitarian office in Gaza received word of the cuts from the Israeli military agency in charge of transferring aid to the territory, according to spokesperson Olga Cherevko. U.S. officials and international aid groups were also notified, according to three AP sources who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss the matter. The Israeli government did not immediately comment. A day earlier, Israelis celebrated the return of the last 20 living hostages in Gaza and Palestinians rejoiced at Israel’s release of some 2,000 prisoners and detainees as part of the ceasefire’s first phase. But now attention in Israel has turned to when Hamas will return all the bodies of hostages who died in captivity. While Israeli officials had understood there could be some delay in the recovery effort, the families of hostages and their supporters expressed dismay that only four of the 28 bodies were returned on Monday.

Israel shoots dead at least 9 Palestinians in Gaza despite ceasefire https://www.aljazeera.com/news/liveblog/2025/10/14/live-trump-signs-gaza-ceasefire-deal-with-leaders-of-qatar-egypt-turkiye Israeli soldiers kill at least nine Palestinians trying to return to their homes in northern Gaza City and southern Khan Younis in the first major violation since the US-brokered ceasefire began. US President Donald Trump has promised lasting peace in the Middle East after signing a Gaza ceasefire deal with the leaders of Qatar, Egypt and Turkiye. Palestinians released from Israeli detention say they were beaten and humiliated with one former detainee describing Israel’s Ofer Prison as a “slaughterhouse”. Israel released nearly 2,000 prisoners and detainees as part of a captives and prisoner exchange. Some 154 prisoners were exiled to Egypt. Hamas also released all 20 surviving Israeli captives held in Gaza and handed over the bodies of four others. Israel’s war on Gaza has killed at least 67,913 people and wounded 170,134 since October 2023. A total of 1,139 people were killed in Israel during the October 7, 2023, attacks and about 200 taken captive.

London World have an article out on three players Chelsea 'could sign this January. 1:Kenan Yildiz: Chelsea are certainly not hort of attacking options on paper after adding both Aleiandro Garnacho and Jamie Gittens among others to their attacking options but that's done nothing to silence numerous reports linking them with a move for Kenan Yildiz. According to TuttoJuve, The Juventus man was the subject of a failed bid in the region of £58m in the summer but an improved offer could still be submitted in the winter. 2:Jorthy Mokio: Chelsea are one of a number of top Premier League clubs to be linked with Aiax wonderkid Jorthy Mokio. The 17- year-old enjoyed a fine season in the Dutch capital last term and is already seen as one of the first names on the teamsheet. He car play as a defensive midfielder but also as a centre-back, which is something Chelsea could take advantage of after Levi Colwill's ACL injury. 3:Dusan Vlahovic: Former Arsenal transfer target Dusan Vlahovic is reportedly pushing for a move to the Premier League as he enters the final few months of his Juventus contract. The 25-year-old has scored 62 times in 153 matches for the Old Lady and could further enhance Chelsea's goal threat. The player is crucially free to discuss personal terms with clubs outside of Italy by January. 💭According to outlets in Brazil 𝙍𝙊𝘽𝙄𝙉𝙃𝙊'𝙎 𝙎𝙊𝙉 Robson Jr. from FC Santos being monitored of Chelsea & Liverpool!

Dortmund are desperate to finalise a new contract with Schlotterbeck, however they are now planning for life without the talented 25-year-old amid significant interest from Liverpool. Disasi has emerged as a legitimate candidate to replace the Germany international, and he would become the third Chelsea player to join Dortmund in quick succession, following the recent moves of Carney Chukwuemeka (€20 million) and Aaron Anselmino (loan).

Chelsea fans horrified by what they’ve seen from Levi Colwill – it’s just the reality of an injury https://Chelsea.news/2025/10/colwill-injury-what-theyve-seen/ Colwill’s weak leg horrifies fans One notable thing that happened at Cobham this week was Levi Colwill’s return to the gym for the first time since his ACL surgery in August. Chelsea fans online were horrified to see his atrophied left leg following months of sitting around waiting for the injury to heal. It will be a long way back from here, with Colwill not expected to feature before the very end of the season, if at all. The good news for the team is that this Saturday should see Wesley Fofana, Tosin Adarabioyo and Trevoh Chalobah all return and be available to play in defence, ending a really tricky period where we were down to the bare bones at the back. Colwill can take his time with his return, and by the looks of things he’ll need it. It’s going to take a lot of patience to get back to where he was – and it’s vital to make sure there aren’t future recurrences. It’s going to be a very dull few months of gym work for him while he watches his teammates having fun out on the pitches at our training centre.

Monday Night SCOUTED Declan Rice v Moisés Caicedo Monday Night SCOUTED presents: a crab and a horse fight to the death https://scoutedftbl.com/declan-rice-v-moises-caicedo/ Mohamed Salah versus Eden Hazard. Virgil van Dijk versus Nemanja Vidić. Moisés Caicedo versus Declan Rice. Not a single international break passes by without at least one of these debates flooding social media timelines. This time, I have successfully resisted the urge to engage...on the timeline. Instead I've written 2000 words on the issue. I hope, through this newsletter, to highlight the foolishness of this debate by viewing it through the lens of totally non-foolish and sensible animal-inspired metrics. Forgive me, for I am about to engage in discourse: not to provide a definitive answer, but to demonstrate how dumb the debate is in the first place. Maybe everyone will read this and log off for a bit? Of course not. But it won’t stop me from trying. Would you compare a crab and a horse? No. Crabs inhabit marine environments. Horses live on land. Crabs are decapods with pincers - I learned the scientific word for these organs is chelae. Cool. Horses are mammals with hooves - I knew that one. Crabs shuttle horizontally and are aggressive when provoked. Horses run in straight lines and bolt when scared. It would be ridiculous to compare them. So why do we compare Caicedo (the crab) and Rice (the horse)? [At this early point you may be wondering if Jake is okay, or if Twitter has totally fried his brain. Please stay with us. This is good, I promise - ed]. At the risk of sucking all fun out of a trivial issue, asking which player you would rather have in your team is a better question - but still requires a lot of nuance. Even posing which you'd rather build a team around is redundant, because you would pick different players to complement either. Football is a team sport and individual debate is irrelevant - but I know that's not fun. Here’s my idea of fun. As a continuation of the zoomorphism, I’m going to translate the crab-like qualities of Caicedo and the horse-like qualities of Rice into a few different metrics and, eventually, Archetypes. First up, habitat. For now, we'll assume that to mean the areas of the pitch a player habituates, instead of their team environment or tactics. That’s because I wanted to introduce another term I’ve borrowed from gaming to help distinguish player profiles: Area of Effect (AOE). Looking at the volume of touches in each third alongside the proportion of touches taken in each should reveal a player's Area of Effect. The value of defining a player's AOE is that it helps understand which skills to compare between two players: in the modern game, a full-back and a centre-midfielder can share the same AOE, for example. You would not compare a player that spends the most of their time in their own box with another that lives in the opposition's penalty area. You know they do different things. Admittedly, it becomes more difficult as players begin to converge into the centre of the pitch. In other words, midfielders are the most difficult to separate through this process. But it’s worth a try. This graph plots Touches per 90 in all thirds of the pitch and inside each box. It also includes the percentage of total touches in each zone which I’ll refer to as Proximity. Rice and Caicedo have a similar number of Touches per 90 but the distribution of them across the pitch is different. Caicedo is a relative outlier for the Defensive Third, but it’s not as extreme when looking at the Proximity to this area. However, in the Middle Third, he is notably above average for both substance and style. This part of the pitch is clearly Caicedo’s AOE. Rice, however, is almost bang-on average for Proximity to each third. In fact, only five players in the dataset sit between -0.2 and 0.2 for Defensive, Middle and Attacking Third: Declan Rice, Elliot Anderson, Frank Onyeka, Mateus Fernandes and James Garner. Of those five, only Rice and Anderson rank above average for Touches per 90. This combination of substance and style paints the picture of a dynamic, do-it-all box-to-box midfielder. In SCOUTED parlance, it illustrates the Ground Eater Archetype. This name encapsulates a player’s ability to literally cover ground or metaphorically gobble up grass. Just like a horse. Everything pertains to long distances: lung-busting runs both with the ball, driving towards the opposition goal, and without it when recovering towards their own. Rice is constantly moving through the thirds. A Ground Eater’s AOE is the entire pitch. Caicedo, in contrast - which does not mean better or worse - is a crabby, small-space menace. While Rice covers multiple thirds due to the verticality of his running, Caicedo shuttles across horizontally, making jabby challenges and punchy passes. This lends itself to a concentration of touches in a specific third. By scuttling side-to-side, Caicedo ensures he doesn’t have to gallop up-and-down like a horse. Like Rice. That’s not a criticism, it’s smart. He knows his limits. Just as Rice can struggle against the most agile players. In fact, Caicedo is such a rampant ball-winner that he does rank above average for Tackles in the Attacking Third. But his principal AOE remains the Middle Third. He also nips away the ball more often than Rice in most other defensive actions, including the composite metric of Tackles, Interceptions, Blocks, Ball Recoveries and Clearances. Formations are becoming less instructive of how a team will set up due to the awareness, importance and diversity of in-possession and out-of-possession systems. If anything, the teamsheet is a better representation of what we’re likely to see OOP than IP. So, when analysing, scouting or comparing players, selecting players based purely on their position is becoming more problematic. At least by looking at something like AOE, players that operate in similar areas of the pitch will likely have to solve similar problems, making a comparison fairer. But even these problems can be solved in different ways. Take passing, for example. The Ground Eater characteristics of Rice’s general coverage also apply to his passing to some extent. His ball-striking ability has transformed him into a set-piece demon, but it also augments his passing over larger distances, again touching on this emerging long-versus-short dynamic. True Progressive Passes are all Progressive Passes excluding Passes into the Penalty Area, counting all “completed passes that move the ball towards the opponent's goal line at least 10 yards from its furthest point in the last six passes”. Both Rice and Caicedo rank above average for output, but Rice is moving towards the significant end of the spectrum; his 1.44 Score is the highest for either player across all metrics on this graph. However, the real separation is based on the percentage of completed passes logged as True Progressive Passes. Caicedo dips slightly below average (-0.33), as expected from a more metronomic passer, while Rice ranks slightly above average (0.82). This difference is also apparent when looking at the percentage of Caicedo’s passes as Short Passes and the percentage of Rice’s passes as Long Passes. Neither player represents a massive jump away from the average, but the difference between the two provides more clarity for our comparison. It’s also worth highlighting that both players have similar Scores for Passes into the Final Third, Progressive Passing Distance and Progressive Distance per Pass. Both players are similarly effective at achieving progression via passing, yet both do so through different means. After all, a long pass at an angle out wide could cover the same distance towards goal as a stabbed line-breaker straight through the middle. You can see this stylistic difference illustrated by the Distance per Pass metric. So, it is fair to compare Rice and Caicedo’s ability to progress the ball with their passing as an isolated skill. But even that discussion pits two contrasting styles against each other. You must also consider the context in which that effective ball progression is being achieved. For Caicedo, we already have knowledge that he is active in securing the ball before he plays it forward. Now let’s apply the same framework we did for passing, this time to each player’s carrying. This separates the crabs from the horses. Despite Rice and Caicedo having a near-identical score for Carries - which correlates extremely closely to Touches - Rice distances himself from Caicedo in most other metrics. Rice is notably above average for Distance and Progressive Carrying Distance, which speaks to the verticality of the Ground Eater style. The fact he is also above average for both Distance per Carry and Progressive Distance per Carry further illustrates that horse-like, galloping quality. Here we see the clearest difference between our crab and our horse. It makes sense that Caicedo’s concentrated AOE in the middle of the pitch does not translate to significant Carrying output. Meanwhile, this is the metric by which players like Rice should be measured. Saying Rice is a more effective ball-carrier than Caicedo is like saying a horse is faster than a crab. It’s redundant. Even if you argue that Rice and Caicedo share the primary responsibility of progressing the ball through the thirds, there are notable differences between the two when combing passing and carrying metrics into Progressive Actions. Caicedo’s primary means of Progression is passing and he is effective at getting the ball into the final third. In some cases, his jabs will be the most efficient way to do so. But Rice has the option of booming switches or thundering gallops, combining to make him more effective and efficient at progressing the ball on the whole, just as Caicedo is more effective at winning it back. Look at Rice’s score for Progressive Actions per Touch. Rice and Caicedo are different animals. This is not a guide for how to be fun at parties or a hack for generating views and impressions on social media, but the question I ask myself before I start to compare two players is: could these two play together? You can answer that by thinking about whether their skillsets would be complementary to one another and whether they share an AOE or on-pitch responsibilities. But if you really want to compare two players, specifically Rice and Caicedo, there is only legitimate way to frame it. This is the only question I’ll allow. Which team would win in a football match: 11 crabs or 11 horses? Take that one to the pub this week.

Chelsea make Kenan Yildiz and Morgan Rogers priority targets for 2026 https://football-talk.co.uk/223114/Chelsea-make-kenan-yildiz-and-morgan-rogers-priority-targets-for-2026/ Chelsea spent a significant amount of money in the recently concluded summer transfer window in rebuilding their offence, and with enough quality and depth across positions in the final third, they are expected to strengthen their midfield soon too. Mark Brus has reported that the Blues have already identified their priority targets for 2026 in Juventus star Kenan Yildiz and Aston Villa mainstay Morgan Rogers, while Olympique Lyon’s Malick Fofana does not sit high on their wish-list for now. Neither Rogers, nor Yildiz will come for cheap and Chelsea will need to spend significant sums on landing both players, given that the Englishman is valued at £80 million by Villa, whereas Juve value their number 10 at £87 million. Chelsea unlikely to sign both players Kenan Yildiz and Morgan Rogers play largely similar roles on the pitch, and it is arguable that the latter offers more versatility due to his ability to play on both flanks in offence, as well as in a slightly deeper lying roles. Owing to fairly identical profiles, it would come as a surprise if Chelsea end up signing both their targets for next summer, more so considering that a significant portion of their transfer budget would be channeled towards landing the attacking midfielders. Rogers would arguably be the better signing due to his experience in the Premier League, but Yildiz, who is three years younger, and has a better potential than the Aston Villa star arguably aligns better with the Londoners’ sporting project. In addition to acquiring a new number 10, Enzo Maresca is likely to push for defensive additions as well next year after he was forced to start this season with several absentees, whereas a number of defenders have also not lived up to expectations of late.

Justin Osagie signed a one-year contract at Posh in October 2024 after a successful trial at London Road. The 19 year-old had been released by Celtic after moving to Scotland from the West Ham United Academy. But Osagie didn’t feature in a single first team squad at Posh. He was sent on loan to National League North side Sports last season where he also didn’t impress before picking up an injury. Posh released Osagie in May, 2025 and he started a trial at Chelsea that summer. The Londoners have now given the player an Under 21 contract. The now 20 year-old was on the bench for the Blues in a Vertu Trophy tie at Northampton Town earlier this season.

Manchester United takeover BOMBSHELL: UAE Consortium to meet Glazer officials today Could this be the turning point Manchester United fans have waited over a decade for? https://thedailybriefing.io/p/manchester-united-takeover-bombshell Something big could be brewing behind the scenes at Manchester United. Sources say senior Manchester United figures are preparing for a decisive meeting today with a UAE-based consortium, a development that could finally bring the takeover saga to a head. UAE-based consortium to meet Manchester United officials (Photo by Alex Livesey/Getty Images) According to transfer insider Indy Kaila’s sources, a high-stakes meeting between a United Arab Emirates-based consortium and senior Man United officials is scheduled for 1pm today in London. The news signals an acceleration in the pursuit of the Premier League giants. As per the insider, who has built a strong reputation for reliable information over the summer transfer window, claims that the UAE delegation is ‘very serious about purchasing the club’, suggesting a full Manchester United sale is firmly on the table. Crucially, the report claims the current owners, the Glazer family, are now open to all possibilities. Taking to X, he reported: “Our sources at Manchester United are reporting that United Arab Emirates-based consortium are meeting #mufc officials in London at 1pm. The UAE officials are very serious about purchasing the club. The Glazers are open to all possibilities.” This marks a major shift from previous stances which often favoured minority investment. This flexibility from the Glazers, coupled with a highly motivated and deep-pocketed UAE consortium, opens the door to a full buyout that could satisfy the owners’ hefty valuation, previously rumoured to be in excess of £5 billion. Manchester United’s revival? How a Middle East takeover could mirror Man City and Newcastle’s rise The prospect of a Middle East-backed takeover at Manchester United could mark the beginning of a new era, one that mirrors the transformations seen at Manchester City and Newcastle United in recent years. Since Abu Dhabi’s City Football Group’s takeover of Manchester City in 2008, the landscape of English football changed. Significant investment in world-class players, top-notch facilities and backroom expertise turned City into a dominant force, a side that has since won six Premier League titles in the last eight seasons. Similarly, Saudi PIF backed consortium’s takeover of Newcastle in 2021 has seen the Magpies grown strength to strength each season, driven by calculated spending, modernised operations, and a clear footballing project built around Eddie Howe. For Manchester United, a UAE consortium takeover could finally bring the financial muscle and strategic direction needed to restore the club to its former glory.

🚨 EXCL: Liverpool's top seven centre-back transfer target list LEAKED to me just moments ago These are the names to watch... https://thedailybriefing.io/p/liverpool-cb-transfer-targets I’ve just received information which I trust to be rock solid on Liverpool’s seven main centre-back targets. As previously reported here, my understanding is that Liverpool remain confident of signing Marc Guehi, but are casting the net wide in case genuine interest in the Crystal Palace man from other top clubs like Real Madrid becomes an issue. Readers will recall I’ve already reported on Liverpool’s interest in… Castello Lukeba - the RB Leipzig central defender who is likely to cost around €60m (lower than his official release clause, which is €90m), and who is also wanted by Chelsea, Real Madrid and other big clubs. Ronald Araujo - Barcelona’s Uruguayan CB whose future is increasingly in doubt as he’s had a slightly reduced role under current Barca boss Hansi Flick. Jarrad Branthwaite - An unlikely one due to the rivalry with Everton, but the admiration from Liverpool is genuine and strong. I can now add another three names to that list, with my sources with ties to the agents industry messaging me to clarify some recent speculation. You might remember that I recently said I’d look into the links with Bayern Munich’s Dayot Upamecano as I was not yet convinced there was much going on there. Turns out it’s legit. “Upamecano is on Liverpool’s list. As a free agent next summer, he’d definitely appeal to them, their recruitment team have looked at him before,” my source said. The other is Nottingham Forest’s Murillo. According to my source: “Murillo is also well liked at Liverpool. He’s someone Forest are probably going to have to sell soon, and we know there’s been interest from Chelsea, but Liverpool will be there too.” Finally, there was a recent report about Sven Botman being someone Liverpool looked at (but didn’t move for) in the summer, and my understanding is that he’s still on their list. “Doing business with Newcastle again won’t be straightforward though,” my source clarified. (Photo by Stu Forster/Getty Images) Liverpool need a top centre-back, or perhaps even two… We know that LFC have a major concern at the moment with Ibrahima Konate coming towards the end of his contract, and Real Madrid hovering for his signature. I have not heard anything recently that suggests Konate is closer to agreeing a new deal with Liverpool. It’s very quiet, so you perhaps can’t rule out that something is going on behind the scenes to break the deadlock, or if it just means nothing is happening at all and there’s an acceptance that he’s going to move on. As soon as I can confirm that either way, I’ll post it here. On top of the Konate saga, Liverpool need a long-term successor to the ageing Virgil van Dijk, while the injury to Giovanni Leoni is a huge blow, keeping the talented young Italian out for around a year. If I were to guess, I’d say there’s a decent chance Liverpool’s list of CB targets is growing because they might try making more than one signing in that position, though of course that’s unconfirmed for the moment, and would likely change if Konate ended up staying. Guehi and Upamecano are two free agents, so could significantly strengthen Arne Slot’s defence without costing a fortune, while signing one of those and then spending a decent sum on a Lukeba or Murillo could also be feasible for the club.

That is true and I feel the same. Trump just push this so he can look good. And the fact is that the world don't care if he looks good. But that being said the most important thing for the people of Israel was to get the hostage back. Something that I asked in the past how in the world they and Hamas alive if Gaza was starving? Could it be that Hamas always took the food from its people?
