More from Matt Law Matt Law: "I would expect Andrey Santos to be part of the Club World Cup squad. At least one of the goalkeepers out of Petrovic and Penders, if not both, will go to the Club World Cup. “The lad coming in from Strasbourg, the defender, Mamadou Saar. I think he will go to the Club World Cup. I don't, I don't know for sure on Estevão, I don't know for sure. Kendrick Paez, definitely, I think, will go to the Club World Cup. Matt Law on Kendry Paez: "He's in England now. He's basically staying in England. He's doing some training in Strasbourg. He's training at Chelsea. “He's not going back now, at any any point, he is over here. He is being integrated, and he would be part of that Club World Cup as well." "I don't really see a scenario where Nico [Jackson] moves out to the left, and that becomes his position. “And I don't think Nico would particularly accept that. Really, I could see a scenario where if someone came in with a good bid for Nico, they'd consider selling him. That is a guess. "Chelsea really like Marc Guiu. He's not going anywhere.”

🔴Arsenal have stepped up their pursuit of Viktor Gyokeres, who's available for a cut-price fee this summer. @FrazFletcher

🟡Matt Law on Chelsea targets for number 9 position: 🎙 "Liam Delap is definitely on the radar, not just of the manager, but the club like him as well as the manager. You've then got Sesko, who also has a release clause. I think Osimhen is still a possibility as well. I don't think that's completely off the table. They're the three that I'm certain are on a list." 🔵Penders isn't getting sold, no chance. Jorgensen isn't getting sold after one year, no chance. So out of Petrovic and Sanchez, one of them is going to end as one of the first two goalkeepers, and one of them is getting sold. @Matt_Law_DT 🟢Matt Law says the only way he sees Chelsea buying a GK this summer is if a ‘superstar option’ becomes available. Who would be that in YOUR eyes?

BREAKING: BlueCo are planning to sign Emanuel Emegha for Chelsea from Strasbourg. "It’s on the table!", @MohamedTERParis 🤔Jackson 2.0 He is damn quick, very bad in the air and still misses a lot of top chances even though he has scored a lot of goals this season!!!!

🤕 Romeo Lavia has played 14 matches for Chelsea in 20 months. He's started 9 games, completing zero. He's played more than 45 minutes just 7 times. (@tomcoley49)

Liam Delap has a release clause in the region of £40million if Ipswich are relegated from the Premier League. Manchester United have held discussions internally but will face competition from Chelsea, Liverpool, Newcastle and Manchester City who have a buyback option. (via@ChrisWheelerDM)

🚨🔵 Brighton midfielder Carlos Baleba is being scouted by top clubs, including Chelsea.

(The Times)

🚨 Barring any last-minute surprises, João Félix will be back at Chelsea; then they will decide whether to keep him or try to find a different solution. Maybe in Turkey or Saudi Arabia, or maybe some opportunity in Portugal with Benfica. We will see. (@FabrizioRomano) 🟤Kyle Walker in the last Match to Felix "PASS THE BALL WE ARE NOT MESSI"😳😳😳

The loans of French midfielder Mathis Amougou and Ecuadorian striker Kendry Paez [from Chelsea to Strasbourg] are almost completed. ‼️The proposed Mamadou Sarr's move from Strasbourg to Chelsea in the summer would be banned by UEFA if both clubs qualify for the same UEFA competition.

🇸🇳 Strasbourg have agreed deal to sign 17 year old winger Yaya Diémé to join from Senegal from 2026 when he turns 18. BlueCo Group (with potential future view on Chelsea move) have been following and monitoring him for months and now closed a deal. (@taggatsn)

🚨 Jadon Sancho has submitted a transfer request to his management to move to Borussia Dortmund again. MUFC [@BILD] 🟡The Sancho to Dortmund story could have something to do with Gittens to Chelsea for us!!! Unfortunately I'm not convinced Gittens will bring us goals and danger down the wings he's been playing really average at BVB since mid January!!!! These are all the players who have moved from the Bundesliga to Chelsea in the last 25 years: -Werner -Nkunku -Sancho -Havertz -Pulisic -Ballack -Schürrle -Pizarro -Marin -Boulahrouz These players also all overperformed in Germany and were mostly flops or just ok players with us!!!! I think they want Gittens because of the homegrown rule and because Joe Shields brought him to City back then and still rates him highly.🤔 We already have enough of those players in our squad!!!

Aurelio De Laurentiis has warned his intermediaries: Victor Osimhen will be sold to the highest bidder! With a release clause set at €75m, applicable only to foreign clubs, the Napoli president has already called upon the best agents on the market to quickly resolve this thorny issue. via@sachatavolieri

Chelsea expected to sign Sancho Chelsea are still expected to sign Jadon Sancho permanently in the summer despite the emergence of a get-out clause existing in the deal. @SkySportsNews Well great another transfer like Felix of a poorly performing player because they have to give him away next year because he doesn't deliver!!!
