Chelsea backed down on its intention to sign Gabriel Mec to observe him more technically. Some of the young player's performances raised doubts about the investment. (@geglobo)

Christopher Nkunku was asked about a possible Barcola-Nkunku duo on the PSG side, but he preferred to laugh about it before declaring: "I don't know what to say to that but yes PSG is still a big club but there have been no approaches, nothing at all" And Maresca has fallen in love with Wesley Fofana and he sees the 23-year-old as a key part of his project going forward. designed a special strategy in order to keep the player fit and minimise the workload on him. Apparently, they have a strict policy of playing the defender once a week in order to avoid injuries. The strategy will remain in place until the start of 2025. {L'Equipe)

Right back scouting starting up now Reece James does have interest from Real Madrid, and sources do expect that one to potentially heat up again. But the ball would entirely be in Chelsea’s court. One source has actually hinted that Chelsea would be keen to listen to offers for James due to his injuries, however, this isn’t quite a universal feel around the club and the board, at least not yet. via@SimonPhillips

Chelsea will remain at Stamford Bridge and expand the stadium capacity to 55,000 if Eghbali wins the boardroom battle with Boehly. Eghbali favours a £1.5billion renovation to stay at the Bridge, while Boehly wants a new 60,000 ground in nearby Earl’s Court. 🤔

Dean Saunders: "At the moment, Christopher Nkunku knows that no matter what he does, he's not going to start in front of Nicolas Jackson. With seven games in, I can’t see a future at the club. You probably can get a deal out of Chelsea right now."

Borussia Dortmund winger Jamie Gittens, who moved to Germany from Manchester City's Academy in 2020, is attracting interest from Chelsea, Liverpool and Tottenham. (@BILD) #Chelsea still believe that Mykhailo Mudryk is a top-level talent but there is a growing trail of thought that a loan move in January could be the best chance for him to find form and confidence.✅️

𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆 | Man City's director of football Txiki Begiristain is set to LEAVE his role at the end of the season, reports @David_Ornstein. PEP next...?🤔

I hope BlueCo will take their chance here🙌 and buy 🇧🇷Vasca da Gama and 🇧🇪Standard Liège for their further talent development.✅️ 🇮🇹FC Genoa would also be interesting 🇩🇪Hertha Berlin too but in Germany there is the 50+1 rule for investors which would be too unattractive for BlueCo. 🇪🇸FC Sevilla is too big a name for BlueCo's talent development strategy.

777 Partners has collapsed, and is selling assets including a yacht and a private jet. But A-CAP, which now controls its clubs, is also in trouble, and recently took out a loan at 46% interest from… Todd Boehly’s GD Luma.

Real Madrid are considering three centre backs, Castello Lukeba, Jorrel Hato, and Vitor Reis. [@jfelixdiaz]

Chelsea and Aston Villa almost agreed on every term for Jhon Durán in the summer. Conor Gallagher was in the deal. The deal collapsed. The issue was Gallagher rejected Villa, and he wanted to decide after Euro's future. (@FabrizioRomano) 😜👌

Chelsea remain interested in Duran but sources close to Aston Villa say that it will take over "£80m" for anyone to sign him. Chelsea owner Behdad Eghbali has expanded its business portfolio by completing a $2.1billion (£1.6bn) buyout of a software company in the US. via@Football_LDN

Don't forget the Duran deal to Chelsea didn't work out because Conor Gallagher didn't want to go to Aston Villa!!!😪😵‍💫

@siphillipssport linked Chelsea to Liam Delap today. So, are you going to trust the scouts or have a meltdown? 🤔🤔

Victor Osimhen is expected to be out of action for around 8 weeks after suffering a thigh strain while on loan at Galatasaray. 🤡🤡

🗣️ Victor Osimhen: "I am worth over 100 million euros. There are few players in the world like me, who have reached such style and success. It all relates to my characteristics, what I do, and my quality. Therefore, I believe I deserve it."

Vitik for Disaster and Murillo for Badiashile🏄✅️

Simon Philips reports The recruitment team really like Brazilian centre back from Nottingham Forest, Murillo , and they enquired about signing him in the summer just gone. However, at that point the price quoted was just far too much and the interest was shelved for now. Chelsea look to go back in for him in one of the next two windows, because he is high on our centre back shortlist.

RB Leipzig chief Oliver Mintzlaff: "Sesko had offers from the Premier League that were worth over €70 million. It was important to us that we were able to put together a top team after the big upheaval last year and continue to work based on a certain continuity." {Kicker}

I'm also starting to find there are too many left-footed people 😇🤣😄
