BREAKING: Manchester United look set to appoint former Chelsea academy chief Jim Fraser. Sir Jim Ratcliffe sees him as a key capture as United plan to sign leading young talent. Fraser boasts a huge reputation for unearthing top young stars. MUFC [@reluctantnicko]

Breaking News Chelsea are #reportedly WILLING to trigger the release clause of Franco Mastantuono's €45M. #BlueCo have already made this known to his agent, Tamer, but River Plates intends to extend his contract and raise his RC to around €55M via@pasionriverpl/@Perla_Londres

🔵As for Jarrad Branthwaite, Chelsea have moved on. Everton have told Chelsea they want 70-75 Mil .. #cfc view valuation as too high. it’s not one or the other in regard to Hato and Huijsen, Chelsea ideally want both and want Viega out the door ASAP.

Mike Verweij reporting Chelsea talks with Ajax for Hato is massive. Easily the most reliable source for Ajax stuff and Hato has crazy high ceiling.

Liverpool currently regard Chelsea as the front-runners for Dean Huijsen. (@JamesPearceLFC)

Chelsea is open to a departure of Wesley Fofana this summer. Mutual interest between the player and OM, but a qualification in the Champions League will be essential to advance on a possible loan. In case of a dry transfer, only Saudi Arabia seems able to keep up financially (via@SebEcrivainFoot) @JacobsBen: "I think Wolves and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall is going to be one to watch, from what I understand. Because Chelsea may be willing to sanction a sale."

‼️ Chelsea and Dortmund are in close contact about various deal this summer, with Carney Chukwuemeka’s permanent transfer potentially being part-payment for Gittens. {Bild}

🚨🆕 What makes the release clause for Dean Huijsen even more interesting: the £50m/€58m do not have to be paid immediately – it has been contractually agreed that the clause can be paid in three instalments. (via@Plettigoal)

BREAKING from @jeorgebird: Arsenal will officially complete the signing of Chelsea defender Marcell Washington in July 2025. The 17 yr old LB has been on trial with Arsenal for over two months now & been in some first team trainings. 🇯🇲

Former Manchester United and Blackburn Rovers chief scout Mick Brown: 🗣 "Chelsea look like they could have another busy window. Maresca wants to sign a new winger because there are questions about where he sees Madueke and Sancho in his plans for the future. One name who has been on their radar for a while is Jamie Gittens."

Exclusive Chelsea have opened the door to the sale or loan of Wesley Fofana due to repeated injuries. Wesley Fofana is more than open to the idea of joining Marseille, who are still interested in him! (@Santi_J_FM @sebnonda)

Gregor Kobel and Chelsea are in close contact – the transfer poker is gaining momentum. If Dortmund misses out on the Champions League, a departure is even more likely. For a transfer fee of around €60million, they are ready to listen. (via@BILD)

🔴Description of Gittens by a Dortmund fan: His first half of the season was absolute performance limit and overperformed. I've rarely seen a player with so little game intelligence. No spatial thinking at all, no gossiping, no shifting completely to the other side. For such a one-dimensional player, I think the sums mentioned are appropriate.

Tottenham, Chelsea and Newcastle remain all keen on signing Marc Guehi from Crystal Palace as he’s been on their lists for months. There’s also a possibility Guehi goes on free transfer in 2026 if a deal can’t be agreed this summer. (Fabrizio Romano) 🔴Al-Hilal have been handed a significant boost as Victor Osimhen is interested in sealing a switch to the Saudi Pro League. (JacobsBen)

Dortmund want to pay £25.6M for Carney and want Chelsea to pay £51.2M for Gittens. Chelsea would have to transfer an additional £25.2M to Dortmund.

🔵Borussia Dortmund are planning a swap deal transfer with Jamie Gittens and Carney Chukwuemeka. However, Chelsea would have to pay a fee in addition to finalise the deal. 🗞 @BILD

BREAKING: Chelsea are in contact with Gittens camp and have offered him €6-7m a year, doubling his current salary, Dortmund request £42-50m. Chelsea believe such a talented English player should play in the Premier League. (@berger_pj)

Enzo Maresca snaps at a reporter and questions him for asking if not finishing top five would be seen as a failure. #CFC Maresca: “I've already answered this one a few times. Compared to the last few years, it is not a failure. How many times have Chelsea been in the Champions League in the last few seasons? Zero. It's already an improvement because we have spent all season there.” [@BobbyVincentFL] And you wonder why the players are not motivated to play and perform when your manager says before every match we are not in the championship race it is not bad not to be in the 1-5 I was never told I have to win something in 1 year blah blah blah

Breaking News Gregor Kobel’s agent is heading to London to talk to Chelsea and Newcastle. (@Santi_J_FM)

🟡Benoit Badiashile has been placed in the STAY at Chelsea category.🤢 🟤One of the factors behind Chelsea considering signing a new CB is because of Fofana’s injury issues. He is still highly regarded at the club, but given he has started just 26 PL games since joining from Leicester City, they have to factor in his injury record. ⚫️Chelsea are thinking about Mamadou Sarr staying on loan at Strasbourg for a season so he can develop further. 🟣Aaron Anselmino will be loaned out next season and there is interest from Champions League and Europa League clubs. 🔴There is a more of a question mark over Tosin and whether he is content with a back-up role. 🟠Axel Disasi and Renato Veiga are for SALE. As part of the agreement with Disasi advisors, Chelsea promised to work together to find a permanent transfer for him in the next window. Chelsea are likely to listen to offers for #Veiga to make a sizeable profit. 🔵Trevoh Chalobah is for SALE Chalobah will be a different story because Chelsea tried to sell the academy graduate last summer. He has played 27 times for Chelsea & Palace this season. This will help Chelsea’s chances of receiving a decent permanent fee. ✅️Levi Colwill is still being monitored by many teams. But sources insist the England international is not for sale. (All News via@SJohnsonSport) ‼️The signing of the new Central defender depends on exits. Those on the shortlist are: 1. Bournemouth CB, Dean Huijsen 2. Crystal Palace CB, Marc Guehi 3. Everton CB, Jarrad Branthwaite (@TheAthleticFC)

Napoli Sporting Director Giovanni Manna has reportedly landed in London (via AreaNapoli) to work on 3 transfers: 🇨🇲 Zambo Anguissa → Chelsea (€20–25M) 🇳🇬 Victor Osimhen → Man United (€75M) 🇺🇦 Georgiy Sudakov → Napoli (€40M)

Chelsea have already activated the clause to make Jadon Sancho’s transfer from Manchester United permanently, with sources describing club figures as viewing it as a “smart investment”. 😶🫥
