Outfield players: Gittens, Garnacho, Nico Williams has a release clause of £49M, Nico O'Reilly, Dibling, Sancho has already been signed for summer 25.🗨

Brighton had not won at the Amex in three months. Before Chelsea came

José Mourinho, 1 year ago: "Huijsen is one of the best prospects in Europe." This was when Huijsen was loaned at Roma, before Mourinho gave him his first ever start. Now Huijsen is shining in the Premier League.

Enzo Maresca: “Being out of the FA Cup, it’s a shame. No doubt”. “If there is something positive, we can be focused on the Premier League and the Conference League. Hopefully we can continue our journey there”.

😪 Reece James picked up a knock, club hope it isn’t anything serious. Lavia James W.Fofana 🚑🚑🚑🚑🚑

Enzo Maresca on Marc Guiu injury: "It looks a long injury. Exactly how long, I don't know. Weeks or months." 😬🤯 🤬🤬 Maresca on Lavia: "Romeo is still in the process to come back but there's still a long way to go." Jackson is in line to feature vs Brighton, but remains a doubt. (via@BobbyVincentFL)

Wesley Fofana has been doing some individual work at Cobham in recent weeks. There will be no rushing the Frenchman back to action with the club eager not to aggravate any muscular problem. Benoit Badiashile nearing return to action from hamstring problem. 23yo defender has not featured since December 8 because of injury. Badiashile has been out on the grass at Cobham doing individual work over last week as he nears return. (via@BobbyVincentFL)

Mike Penders: “I didn’t see it coming, Chelsea and PSG are not the smallest clubs. There were others who showed interest, but they pushed through. Only PSG didn’t want to pay what Genk were asking, they didn’t get out. Chelsea, on the other hand, came with a very concrete plan, both sporting and financial.” Mike Penders on competition at Chelsea: “At that level you know that you will have to compete with top players anyway. It’s part of it.” Mike Penders: "I don’t know. Chelsea didn’t choose me based on those few games in the first team. They had followed me intensively the whole season before at Jong Genk. So, you see how important the academy is, and why you have to take those matches seriously too." (via@Humo)

Slonina was not signed by the current sporting management. Slonina was even signed on the recommendation of Petr Cech.

🎙️Geoffrey Moncada, General Director of AC Milan, speaking to 'Sport Mediaset: “We have an excellent relationship with Chelsea and, even without the option to buy, there is a possibility that this could happen in June [keeping [João Félix is definitive].” (@sportmediaset) 💬They probably think they can buy Felix from us in the summer for €20-€25M like all italy clubs!!!!😡

Chelsea have laid the groundwork for a potential summer move to sign Jamie Gittens from Dortmund. (@MailSport) Gittens & Sancho on Leftwing for the Season 25/26

Petrovic is still likely to leave Chelsea this summer despite his strong form. @JacobsBen 🫨🫨

Chelsea have started working in the background on a striker for the summer. (@FabrizioRomano) Liam Delap 💯

Amougou will be the cover for Enzo, Caicedo, KDH and Lavia. (@FabrizioRomano)

Axel Disasi still says no to Spurs so he could stay at Chelsea unless a new club appears. (@FabrizioRomano) 😡😡

Amougou will have a medical at Chelsea soon and could stay in the first team, LONG term contract, £12.4m deal. (@FabriceHawkins)

Chelsea have agreed to buy Essugo for €25m the Fee for Mathis Amougou is in the region of €15m.💶 (Ben Jacobs) 🫣🫣

Chelsea have agreed to buy Essugo for €25m. The 19-year-old is currently on loan at Las Palmas and will remain there until the end of the season. {O Jogo}

Sam Rak-Sakyi is expected to stay at Chelsea at this stage despite links over a move to Frank Lampard's Coventry City. Santos still want Deivid Washington and are trying to do a loan with option move for him. Unclear whether Chelsea accept but can be done later with the Brazilian deadline after the European ones tonight. via@Nizaar Kinsella
