The most recent time Chelsea’s away kit was black was in the 2016-17 season, the season in which Chelsea won the Premier League title.

100% 😁💪

PL clubs will no longer be able to sell assets like hotels and women's teams to themselves from next season to get round new financial rules. (@BBCSport)

Enzo Maresca: "Axel and Raheem are Chelsea players. Axel is helping the second team and young players. During the international break, we had just 5-6 players here and Axel was part of some sessions. It was just one session with us. At the moment, he is helping the second team and helping them." (@NizaarKinsella)

🔵According from Africafoot, Chelsea has already set its sights on the young Malian star Seydou Dembélé. The Blues' management was really impressed by the young player's enormous talent, which they had already heard about, and, according to our sources in the Kingdom of Morocco, made an initial offer of €1.6 million to sign him.

🔵Chelsea will keep going with their strategy of trying to bring in the best young talents in world football. Sam Jewell went to close the deal in South America for Deinner Ordonez and I can confirm reports that Chelsea are tracking Brazilian midfielder Felipe Morais. (@FabrizioRomano)

Behind the scenes at Real Madrid, there is growing unease that the club did not enter the race for Estêvão when he was still at Palmeiras. The Brazilian gem was analyzed, and the decision to not move forward is now viewed with some regret given his immediate impact at Chelsea and on the national team. ( Bruno Andrade - @ESPNBrasil)

Chelsea Football Club want to sign Nottingham Forest star Elliot Anderson in January. Romeo Lavia could be sold at suitable price Our information direct firom source within Chelsea. (@indykaila) 🧳Next R.Lavia Departure Story⏳️ Does anyone understand this E.Anderson hype? He's good, but not as good as everyone is making him out to be at the moment, or...

Man United rejected Chelsea's offer of Romeo Lavia as part of the deal that saw Alejandro Garnacho move to Stamford Bridge, ultimately for £40 million, due to concerns over the 21-year-old's fitness record. (@MarkOgden_)

Liverpool made a late move to try and sign Independiente del Valle centre-back Deinner Ordonez, but by the time the Reds made an approach, Chelsea had already sealed a deal for the 16-year-old. 😀 (@FabrizioRomano)

🟢Chelsea are tracking teenager Felipe Morais, and have sent a €10m (£8.6m) offer to Cruzeiro to “test the waters”. (PH Cruzeirense via Sport Witness)

🗣 Noni Madueke: "When I’ve been in the stadium, I haven’t felt that close to fans, to be honest. I always love playing at the Emirates, I’m always looking forward to the next game where I’m back at the Emirates."

One of the issues with new FOS sponsors is companies waiting to see what punishment Chelsea get for the recent charges against them. Companies have been reluctant to commit so I’d assume Chelsea and Oracle will negotiate extending the current deal (if agreed) past summer. (@SimonPhillips)

🔥🤩

Chelsea’s youth drive will continue with the signing of Ecuadorean defender Deinner Ordonez from Independente del Valle, Moises Caicedo’s old club. 16yo defender agrees long term deal and joins in 2028. (@JacobSteinberg)

Chelsea are planning on reintegrating Axel Disasi back into the first-team squad over time, with the out-of-favour Frenchman impressing behind the scenes this season. (@BobbyVincentFL)

🗣 @GraemeBailey: “I have been hearing Chelsea have been following Endrick’s situation for weeks and are ready to offer him the chance to rebuild his career in West London. “I think Chelsea have room in their star-studded squad for another striker in January and I am now told that they could be the ideal place for Endrick to kick-start his career.” 🗣️ @GraemeBailey: “One Brazilian who everyone is loving [at FIFA U-17 World Cup is Felipe Morais. “Stunning player, fabulous technician. Everything about him. He’s really stood out and really caught the attention. Not that clubs didn’t know about him, but he’s obviously only turned 17 in August. “He’s one who has impressed Chelsea. He’s stood out. A scout said to me a real majestic Kaka-type player.” 🟢Chelsea frontrunners for Maignan Gazzetta dello Sport claim that even though Juventus are interested, Chelsea remain frontrunners for Mike Maignan on a free in the summer.

🟤️Chelsea failed with an offer worth €67m for Juventus forward Kenan Yildiz in July, but they are ready to return. The Blues are likely to face competition from Real Madrid and Arsenal. Majority shareholder John Elkann plans to intervene to find a resolution on a renewal with Juventus. If there is no progress, he will be sold at a minimum of €100m next summer. (Gazzetta dello Sport) 🔵Chelsea are actively compiling an eye-catching shortlist of midfield targets. Enzo Maresca is keen to strengthen in the middle of the park. With injuries plaguing key personnel and squad depth stretched thin, he believes the Blues need another midfielder to push for trophies this season. immediate solutions for the second half of the season and longer-term planning for 2026. ⚪️Palace and England sensation Wharton sits atop the wishlist. The 21-year-old has impressed with his maturity, vision, and ability to dictate tempo from deep. Chelsea 's recruitment team see him as a future cornerstone. However, Palace remain resolute: no mid-season sale. A January bid would demand a nine-figure sum prohibitive even for Chelsea’s ambitious owners. Insiders suggest any deal is far more plausible in the summer of 2026, giving both clubs time to negotiate. 🟠A more immediate possibility, however, is Nico Paz, the 21-year-old Spanish playmaker currently shining at Como. Chelsea have made direct enquiries to both the Serie A club and Paz’s representatives. The former Real Madrid youth product is intrigued by a Premier League move, viewing Chelsea as an ideal platform to showcase his creativity and left-footed flair. Como, backed by wealthy ownership, are determined to retain their starlet, but a substantial offer could test their resolve. Paz fits Chelsea’s data-led model: young, high-upside, and resale potential. 🔴Perhaps the most intriguing name on Chelsea’s radar is Kobbie Mainoo. The Manchester United teenager is growing frustrated with limited minutes under Ruben Amorim and is open to a loan move to secure regular football. Chelsea believe he aligns perfectly with their youth-focused strategy homegrown, dynamic, and technically gifted. 🟡The urgency stems from Romeo Lavia’s persistent injury woes. Once heralded as a transformative signing, the Belgian has struggled for continuity. Some at Chelsea now whisper that a summer 2026 sale could be on the cards, freeing wages and squad space for a major midfield addition. 🟢Meanwhile, another outlet has backed up our information that Chelsea have now launched an ' official encuiry ' for Como star Paz, as they eye a January deal for the youngster.

Marescaball It's so damn boring and predictable.🤬💀

Eyong: "Dream to play for Chelsea" Chelsea already added forwards Liam Delap and Joao Pedro over the summer but are always alert to market opportunities, especially with up-and-coming talents. There is no indication yet whether Chelsea will advance their interest, but Eyong would certainly give serious consideration to a move to West London. “Growing up, Chelsea was the English team I probably watched the most because of Drogba, and Eto'o was there was a year as well. Chelsea have often signed incredible African players. There are so many big clubs in England, but as for [joining] Chelsea, why not? It would be a dream for me to play for Chelsea." (@BenJacobs)

Chelsea have remained in contact with Antonio Rüdiger’s entourage as they remain interested in a reunion with the player. (@Marca)
