‼️Renato Veiga already had problems with discipline at FC Basel and was left out a few times because of it!!!⭕️

☎️Transfer News from Simon Phillips 👀Chelsea are looking at new players in at least 5 different positions.✍️✅️ Chelsea have a shortlist for the goalkeeper position, center-back, left-back, winger and striker that they want to sign now or in the summer.‼️

🤔Madueke has had three strikes by Maresca, one in August about training, another before Aston Villa about training again, and now what we can only assume as strike three by Maresca. The competition has to be higher. Renato Veiga was left out for the same reason as Madueke. Not only Noni but also Renato Veiga” Chelsea have no thoughts of selling yet in January. (@kierangill_DM) 💬Enzo Maresca on Ipswich Town's Liam Delap: "Fantastic player. Also for his age. We spent one year [at Man City] and he scored 24 goals. He’s working hard off the ball. On the ball he understands the game. He can be an important player for England."🔵

Enzo Maresca on zero minutes for João Félix: “We decided to sub on Nkunku for Nico… João plays more or less the same position as Cole Palmer”. “They played together already but it’s also a matter of balance”. “That’s why he didn’t enter today”, added via @LloydCanfield.

Madueke being left out was a technical decision according to Maresca. [@kierangill_DM] Despite 2 GK’s being on the bench. 👀

Gusto has been playing underground bad the whole season since he intevened!!! Nkunku is also a joke as a striker as we have 2 non goal scoring wingers and Jackson only shines against middling to poor teams everything up front depends on Palmer who for me is playing completely wrong he needs to play as a right winger not centrally. Neto had to iron out everything defensively for Gusto because he only ever passed to the back and was and is completely off track!!! Leicester City fans have warned us that Enzo only has a plan A not a plan B and is sticking to it. Also concerning the substitutions. Looks like Maurizio Sarri 2.0 vibes at the moment unfortunately.

Casadei as the only midfielder on the bench is rough, hopefully not needed though. No Madueke in the squad could be concerning if it’s injury-related. Two GKs on the bench.😒 No Viega, Chilwell, Dewsbury-Hall, Chukwuemeka Badiashile, Fofana, James, Lavia missing due to injury. Mudryk unable to be selected

Chelsea have added KRC Genk’s 17-year-old attacking midfielder Konstantinos Karetsas to their transfer target list. {Sport 24}

RealMadrid have decided against a move for Franco Mastantuono. (Marca) 👀✍️✅️ Chelsea are prepared to trigger Franco Mastantuono's €45m release clause at River Plate. (River Noticias)

Maresca says Lavia is out for Fulham. Lavia is Reece James & Wesley Fofana 2.0 🙂‍↕️😒

Gusto is so useless in the half-space🤬🤬

💬Robert Sanchez: "I've been looking outside the window of the bus and the wind looks really strong. It can be difficult to read the ball when it gets in the wind.🗯"

Sorry I meant these will all leave Chelsea if Essugo & Santos is still coming💪🏄

Chelsea looking to snap up Sporting Lisbon midfield sensation Dario Essugo on cheap but face Leeds transfer scrap Chelsea want to land midfield ace Dario Essugo on the cheap. The Sporting Lisbon prospect, 19, is starring for LaLiga side Las Palmas on loan. Essugo played 25 times for Sporting as a teen. (via@AlanNixon) 🔵If Chelsea now sign Dario Essugo, that would be it for Ugochukwu, KDH, Casadei, Sam Rak-Sakyi and Chukwuemeka at Chelsea🗯‼️‼️

The Telegraph have already evoked an interest from Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United, however, Premier League interest in the centre-back is growing. Manchester City and Leicester City have now also joined the race, whilst RB Leipzig are also tracking Khusanov. Foot Mercato understands that Paris Saint-Germain’s sporting director Luís Campos has already met the player’s entourage, whilst Atletico Madrid are also in the race. Lens are hoping for between €25-30m for Khusanov.

💬Enzo Maresca wants Marc Guiu, Josh Acheampong and Tyrique George to stay at Chelsea in January rather than sending 18yo trio away on loan for more regular minutes.🗯 (via@KieranGill_DM)

💬Maresca says Fofana and Badiashile will be out for a “long🗯 period” (via@TheAthleticFC) We have to replace both players‼️ 🔵Maresca says Reece James is in partial team training again: “Reece will finally start with us for part of the session. Slowly, slowly, he will be back. It doesn't mean he’s going to be with us on Sunday, or next Sunday, just today the plan is for part of the session he'll be with the team”✍️ Enzo Maresca on injury news: "Romeo [Lavia] probably will struggle to play Sunday. We will see. It depends. And then the rest are all clear." Lavia is almost like James both are always injured but these two are top players and not for sale.‼️ 🚨🔵 Carney Chukwuemeka and Ben Chilwell are expected to leave Chelsea in January, confirms Maresca. “There are players who didn’t play a lot with us in, like Chilwell and Carney… so probably they are the first who want to leave. We will try to find a solution”.🗯 (FabrizioRomano)

Juventus and an unnamed German club have enquired about the potential signing of out-of-favour Chelsea centre-back Axel Disasi (26). (@RMCsport)

🚨 Asked Enzo Maresca if Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall could leave in January. "Unfortunately, I can't say he won't leave because anything can happen. I am not focused on January. We are very happy with the way he is working and his performance. We don't want one of our players to leave. With Kiernan, it's a question for him. If a player says he is not happy and wants to play more, we are not going to say you have to stay. We are happy with Kiernan, and then in January we will see." (via@BenJacobs)

Chelsea are in talks with several potential companies that could join the club in the next few weeks. The club are also expecting a fee of £20m-£25m for the rest of the season. The previously mentioned well-known airlines such as Qatar Airways, Riyadh Air and Turkish Airlines are participating in the talks. The remaining interested companies come from the US. Riyadh Air was also considering a joint proposal to sponsor the club with another Saudi entity linked to PIF. Chelsea are set to sign a package worth up to £60m a year in a front-of-shirt sponsorship deal (men’s and women’s teams) from next season if they qualify for the UCL. Good performances on the pitch put the club in a much better negotiating position than at the beginning of the season. A few months ago, Inter concluded a similar agreement with Qatar Airways as the training kit sponsor. The expanded partnership includes brands such as Visit Qatar and Hamad International Airport.

💬According to Bild, the Blues are looking closely at Kobel and are considering signing him after the season. The Dortmund keeper's contract was extended in October 2023 until 2028 and does not include an exit clause. At the time, the contract was extended to bring the 10-time international among the top earners in the squad. Since then, he has been earning around €10 million a year.🗯

🚨 The news that Benoit Badiashile has suffered an injury in training, which looks like ruling him out for a while, has come at a bad time. Wesley Fofana is already sidelined with a hamstring problem, so Chelsea could be without two important squad players for the busy Christmas period. (@SJohnsonSport)

🔵Simon Phillips reports today: "The opinion expressed from the outside that the club still lacks a top goalkeeper and a top central defender to win the Premier League is not shared internally.,, I askedmy main source about the reports of new goalkeeper links being cut and his response was: 'No comment. We are in the goalkeeping market, I can guaranteeyou that Another top source also said: 'We are 100% looking for new goalkeepers.🙌🤩💙 Again, this is 100% correct from our sources. The core is together, but Chelsea will always look for ways to improvewhat they have if they feel they can, and if opportunities like a Davies, for example, arise, they will be there. They are alwayslooking to improvein the market and a new goalkeeper, a central defender and a striker are the priority positions being looked at at the moment. According to Mario Cortegana of The Athletic Chelsea are monitoring Bayern Munich left-back Alphonso Davies Simon says This is also 100% true. Chelsea would love to get Davies if the opportunity presents itself and have been sounding out the market for the left-back. He is a player they would love to get. 💬Chelsea will listen to transfer offers in January for Players effort.
