I think Chelsea would get Barcola with a small chance but in return they get Andrey Santos who they have PSG wanted for a long time!!!!

Dortmund expect Gittens to move to Chelsea. There is an expectation of a face to face meeting in the USA during the CWC. (@Matt_Law_DT)

🤕🤕😴😴

Chelsea want to sign a left winger with Garnacho part of a 3 man list of targets that includes Jamie Gittens and Malik Fofana. — Chelsea could sign more than one of their winger targets depending on other business with all options currently considered open.

Breaking News Chelsea and Manchester United weigh up deals for Nkunku and Garnacho to move in opposite directions. Chelsea also still in talks over Gittens with Borussia meeting expected to take place in US during CWC. (MattLaw)

@NizaarKinsella believes Dortmund's move to register Gittens for the CWC could backfire and devalue him. He believes CFC will not pay over a certain fee and could walk away if Dortmund do not budge. Dortmund’s CEO held a secret meeting with Bayern’s Max Erbel today over Gittens. Chelsea last offer was £30m fixed with £20m in add ons. Bayern will have to convince Gittens as he currently wants Chelsea. Dortmund want at least £55m to sell Gittens. Another club like Bayern entering the race could play into their hands and raise the price even further. (@RNBVB via @bvbnewsblog)

🔴Arsenal and Chelsea have been in talks over Madueke. Chelsea want £50m. Arsenal don’t want to pay that price right now. (@MiguelDelaney) 🔴Bayern Munich are interested in securing the services of Chelsea full-back, Malo Gusto. According to reports, Chelsea would be willing to sell the Frenchman, whose contract runs until 2030, for a fee of around €50M. (BILD) 💸According to Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea value Nicolas Jackson at between €55-60m, which is around £50m.

Bayern Munich have entered the race for Jamie Gittens, 20. They are willing to offer Borussia Dortmund £55m for the winger. (Kicker)

Luis Enrique in person has closed the door to any potential Bradley Barcola move. Bayern and Chelsea have made attractive offers for the French winger, but PSG are unwilling to listen or negotiate. Barcola also has no desire to leave Paris as long as the competition for spots is healthy [@lequipe]

@FabrizioRomano: “At the moment the Maignan deal is completely off, it is not advancing, it is not progressing, it is not being reactivated. At the moment the situation is really quiet. Let’s see what is going to happen with the player in the next weeks and months. Let’s see what’s going to happen also in terms of Milan’s decisions on the contract extension for the player.” Chelsea and Dortmund are still working club to club to find an agreement for Jamie Gittens. As said before, the player has agreed to a 7-year deal with Chelsea. Chelsea, keep working and advancing on this deal. He's the priority. (@FabrizioRomano)

😶😶😶

Maresca on Palmer and tactical changes: "He played in a different structure today to prepare for next season to have different options. I think the plan worked quite well for 60 minutes. We tried for the first time this season a new system." He says Jackson was unlucky to be sent off, felt it was harsh.

Enzo Maresca had Lavia, Santos, Essugo on the bench but fielded Reece James in midfield. This man has the confidence of Pep Guardiola but his ability is equal to David Moyes!!!

Enzo Maresca post-Flamengo. "Six minutes changed the game. In the second half, we started better compared to the first half. But we conceded two goals in two minutes and then the red card. It changed the dynamic. They deserved to win."

Filipe Luis: “Chelsea needs to win titles because I know the pressure inside the club.” [@JacobsBen]

Mikel: “I’ve talked about this goalkeeper so many times, he can’t win us a title, he’s not that guy, we need to go in the market and bring in a top goalkeeper” (DAZN)

So that’s what Palmer looks like on the right wing in Maresca’s system. An irrelevant extra modelling our new away kit but not playing any actual football. We need two new wingers this summer. We can’t rely on Madueke, Neto and Gittens to cover both wings for 60 games!!!!

FIFA website is calling our shape a 3-5-2 with Gusto and Cucurella as wing-backs. Neto and Delap as strikers. Chalobah CCB, Reece RCB, Colwill LCB. Palmer CAM, Enzo and Caicedo as the midfield pivot.

Chelsea have made an inquiry for Joâo Pedro, who is keen on a move to London. But the Blues will face competition from the likes of Newcastle who are also very keen on the forward. (via@LaurensJulien) Chelsea boss Maresca is an admirer of Aston Villa's Morgan Rogers. (@BBCSport) By buying younger players on lower wages and spreading the payments over long-term contracts, Chelsea's strategy is to unearth new stars and sell on unwanted talent for a profit.

👌Correct as a replacement for Guehi who is moving to Liverpool

Why do all teams always get discounts but Chelsea never!!!

Liverpool could offer a guaranteed £100m + bonuses for Alexander Isak that would potentially exceed the deal for Florian Wirtz. (via@JacobsBen)
