👀🔵Chelsea remain in talks to sign Rennes defender Jeremy Jacquet, confidence it can be done at least for the summer. Mamadou Sarr could return in January, Aaron Anselmino off to Strasbourg. A tale of three centre-backs, all 20. (@NizaarKinsella)

🔵🗯Chelsea made an offer of £25m for Nantes defender Tylel Tati. They rejected this initial approach. Chelsea wanted to loan him back. A deal is unlikely to happen due to time constraints before the transfer window closes this Monday. (@Tanziloic & @lequipe)

👀 Jac Potato will be playing for Chelsea starting this summer!!💪

As mentioned, Gusto is back in the middle of the pack!🤢

My God, what do you want to do with Delap, Garnacho, and Gittens!!!!

What on earth is Badiashile on The amount of ball watching/lack of awareness from these centre backs in embarsssing. It’s every game. Either Fofana, Badiashile, Chalobah… In this case, he doesn’t even attempt to play the ball

We'll see.

BREAKING: Estevao has had to travel back to Brazil due to personal reasons. (@kierangill_DM)

And Gusto will play as a number 10 or winger again.🤢 I just hate it!

Unbelievable why Liam Badiashit is rated so highly!

AC Milan reaches agreement for Disasi with both Chelsea and the player. Now the club 🔴⚫️ will decide whether to close the deal after internal discussions. (@86_longo) 🙌I hope Chelsea sells Disasi and Datro Fofana outright. If they bring M. Sarr back, there would still be three international loan spots available. Anselmino and Josh to Strassbourg would be a great thing. George is transferring within the Premier League on loan.

🚨 👀 Be very careful guys on Jacquet, the race is still underway, I think this is gonna be big, it’s a bit underrated in the media this story. Chelsea still there, Liverpool still there, Bayern looking unlikely. Liverpool would be open to buying him now for the summer, while Chelsea keep insisting with the player’s agents. (@FabrizioRomano)

🔴AC Milan are pushing for Axel Disasi. West Ham was in advanced talks to take him on loan but the parties did not reach signatures. (@MatteMoretto) 🟠Benfica have been looking to get a deal in place for George. They are very keen to take the player. The agent is working to make that happen. The problem is the cost. Benfica is proposing a loan with an option to buy. Chelsea would like a guaranteed fee on that deal. (@DuncanCastles)

🔵Auxerre wants to sign Chelsea striker David Datro Fofana. Discussions are regarding a loan with an option to buy. (@lequipe)

🔵🗯Jeremy Jacquet only wants Chelsea. Personal terms agreed. Expect developments after both sides have played their matches on Saturday. (@SkySports)

💥Chelsea not getting anywhere with Jacquet as it stands, hence the Sarr noise finally coming out as reported days ago. Anselmino saying no could be a problem though. (@SimonPhillips)

🔵🗯Chelsea would like to recall Mamadou Sarr but there’s a problem, Anselmino doesn’t want to go to Strasbourg to replace him. (@FabriceHawkins)

🔵🗯💪

🚨Everton have shown interest in a loan deal for Tyrique George. Chelsea previously had only been willing to sanction a permanent exit for George but are now exploring loan options. (@TheAthleticFC)

💥Valentin Barco played as a left-back for Boca, Brighton, FC Sevilla, and again for Brighton, where he mostly failed to impress and the above-mentioned teams wrote him off. Chelsea had him on their radar even before he moved to Brighton. After his move to Racing Strasbourg, where he was given a new chance by Sam Jewell, he was initially used as a left-back in the first few games, before Liam Rosenior moved him to central midfield. He is really flourishing there, playing deadly passes with great vision, very spirited, a real fighter with great technique. He's a bit taller than Marco Veratti, but Barco's playing style and temperament remind me completely of Veratti!

🗯European football expert Andy Brassell: 🗣️ "I know Chelsea and Rosenior are interested in him [Valentin Barco]."

CFC fans are chanting 'Chelsea reject' and 'you fat bastard' as Lukaku leaves the pitch.

My heart, what stupid turnovers in the last minutes of the game. Luckily, Lakaka didn't score.

Cucurella's performance has also declined significantly over the past few weeks!

I can't believe it, now Gusto is playing in Estevao's position in the attack too!!!
