Michael Olise has chosen to join Bayern Munich. (@David_Ornstein)

Chelsea have pulled out of the race to sign Michael Olise. The total operation of fees, wages and agents fees deemed too expensive. Focus will switch to other targets

Atlético Madrid have rejected today formal bid from Chelsea for Samu Omorodion around €30m plus add-ons up to €40m package. Chelsea keep considering Omorodion and Jhon Durán as options for new striker. Atlético Madrid insist on their plan to keep Samu Omorodion. (via@FabrizioRomano)

BREAKING: Real Madrid is now considering EXTENDING Kepa's loan if Lunin leaves Real Madrid. [@relevo] Not Loan pls.

Chelsea have held talks over a possible move for Atletico Madrid striker Samu Omorodion - also still negotiating with Aston Villa's Jhon Duran and remain interested in others. (MattLaw)

I rate Omorodion above both Sesko and Duran, his combination of athletic power and box movement is frankly incredible for his age, but he is a risky signing. Very risky. (ExpectedChelsea) 😶‍🌫️

JUST IN: Chelsea have had a £33.8m bid rejected for Samu Omorodion, but they still want him. (@DiMarzio)

Chelsea wants Samu Omorodion and will try to find an agreement with Atletico Madrid, even if the requests are high. Samu Omorodion is the first choice for Chelsea's attack. (@DiMarzio) 🫥

#Chelsea have joined the race for Xavi Simons . Manchester United, Manchester City , Bayern Munich and Arsenal also admire the player . [ via @lequipe]

Noni #Madueke’s future at #Chelsea could be in doubt: if a bid around 30M arrives, the winger could leave. Many clubs have already asked him on loan.

Chelsea message on Colwill - “Untouchable” (@FabrizioRomano)

Napoli issue a statement responding to comments made by Khvicha Kvaratskhelia's father and agent, with both saying the Georgian could leave. "Napoli reiterates the player has a contract for another three years. Kvaratskhelia is not on the market. It is not on agents or fathers to decide the future of a player under contract with Napoli, but the club! End of the story."

Chelsea scouts have been in attendance several times to watch Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, but they are mentioning Champions League and Chelsea are not in it. (@FabrizioRomano)

Bayern München want 42 million pounds for De Ligt. He's on 250k a week. Good Deal for Chelsea? Disasi,Basiashile & Chalobah leave Calafiori & De Ligt or Leny Yoro IN✅️

Chelsea are open to offers for Benoit Badiashile this summer amid interest from Serie A clubs AC Milan and Roma, as well as teams from the Saudi Pro League. #CFC 👀

Chelsea are looking for a massive upgrade to their squad this summer, and Atlético Madrid's Jan Oblak has emerged as a tempting option. Atlético Madrid are willing to sell Jan Oblak, opening the door for Chelsea to acquire him. {Marca}

There was a #Chelsea’s scout tonight in Dortmund to monitore Riccardo #Calafiori. Maresca wants him, but the centre-back prefers to join #Juventus (agreement in principle for a contract until 2029 with a salary of 2,2M/year). #Bologna ask 40M because #FCBasel have 50% on the sale

Pochettino: “We need to assess Lavia in the next few days and see because he feels something”. “Wee still don't know if it is going to be a few days or a few weeks”. “Badiashile out? He’s a little bit tired and felt something which is not a big issue”.

Chelsea's owners have a very concrete interest in buying a minority stake in Sporting Lisbon and are ready to take the lead for the club. Todd Boehly sees Portugal as "the perfect place" to invest in another football club. (@Record_Portugal) Chelsea looking into Argentinian clubs as part of multi-club model: Banfield, Newell’s, Racing Club, Lanus, Estudiantes & Boca Juniors have all been discussed internally. Chelsea’s aim if they were to acquire a club is to make them competitive & use the club as a scouting hub in Argentina. Chelsea would like to buy South American talents & place them in Argentina before moving to Europe, as they’ve seen a high success in Argentines moving to the Premier League.

🚨🚨| Lucas Gourna-Douath was present at Stamford Bridge this afternoon… another youngster off to London, perhaps? 🤔

TIM HARKNESS is leaving his role as Chelsea’s Head of Sport Science and Psychology after 14-and-a-half years. The South African has been one of the great survivors at Stamford Bridge, working under a dozen different managers during a period of considerable change. He joined the club in July 2009 after a chance meeting with Carlo Ancelotti’s former assistant, Bruno Dimichelis. Mark Beeney leaving Chelsea So that time has come. After starting work coaching for Chelsea FC on a part time basis in June 2001, Head of Goalkeeping Dept for the U21’s from 2004 and latterly scouting for the Club for the last 16 months, Chelsea have decided my time at the club has come to an end. I have worked with some fantastic people on and off the pitch, and would like to wish them all the very best. I am now looking forward to new challenges and as one door closes another one hopefully will open….

Disasi is soo slow🤢
