Napoli are waiting for Chelsea's response. They are not budging from the €25m plus €5m in bonuses offered to Chelsea for Romelu Lukaku, on the basis of a loan with an obligation to buy. ~ @DiMarzio

@football24tv reporting that the West London club and Southampton are interested in acquiring this summer’s official Euro U19 GK of the tournament - Vladyslav Krapyvtsov! Chelsea offering the 19 y/o a U23 spot / Soton as 3rd choice GK More Goalkeeper🤣🤣 Ben Roberts and Ross Turnbull are 🔥🔥🔥🫡

Crystal Palace are closely monitoring Carney Chukwuemeka's situation but may be put off should the asking price move much beyond the £20 million. (@NickPurewal)

Chelsea are set to pay Atlético Madrid €50m plus €10m in bonuses for João Félix. {AS}

Understand Chelsea have informed Napoli they still want at least €40m for Romelu Lukaku. Loan with €30m obligation set to be rejected. (Ben Jacobs)

EXCL: Chelsea are closing in on João Félix deal! Talks are at final stages to get it sealed soon. Verbal agreement almost done with Atlético, final details on structure being completed. TOTAL agreement with João on personal terms as he wants #CFC return. Almost there. (Fabrizio Romano)

Crystal Palace is willing to put £42.6m deal on the table for the services of Carney Chukwuemeka and Trevoh Chalobah (SUN)

Napoli wants to get Romelu Lukaku on their own terms. They have offered a loan with obgliation to buy. £4.2 million for the loan, then £21.3 million next year. Chelsea have not yet accepted these conditions. (@DiMarzio)

Maresca on Carney Chukwuemeka and his future: “Carney is a very good player but because of some injuries in the past… I think it's important he plays 30 or 35 games in a row”. “Is he going to play that for us? I'm not sure…”, says — via @BobbyVincentFL.

Enzo Maresca asked directly if he wants Raheem Sterling in his squad. "I want all 30 players but there is no space for all of them so some have to leave."

We won't get anything with Jackson as our main striker sorry!!!

Understand Sterling was informed on Friday he would not be playing against Manchester City. Enzo Maresca made the "technical" decision with full club support. (Ben Jacobs)

Maresca to SkySports: "The manager has to make some decisions. Sometimes players don't like it, that's normal. Just a technical decision, no more than that."

It will definitely be Madueke because he has a market this summer and would pour money into the coffers with profit, which cannot be said of Mudryk.

Raheem Sterling's representative indicated to Mail Sport that his omission from Sunday's Blues party that faces Manchester City was unexpected. (@SamiMokbel81_DM)

No Sterling,Chukwuemeka,Chilwell and Disasi in today's squad..🔥✅️ With the other players like Petrovic,Chalobah,Kepa,Lukaku,Casadei,Angelo,Datro Fofana,Broja and Washington you already know they can and will all leave.

Sterling not in the squad, wow. Statement of Maresca✅️💪🔥

🚨🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Brentford manager Thomas Frank: “Things are happening for Ivan Toney so we decided not to involve him in the squad”. “There’s interest, nothing closed yet but things are happening”, told Sky.

The final fee for João Félix won't be €60m, €65m, €70m as reported in Spain. The expectation is to be lower, probably something around €40m, maximum €45m, but I think it's going to be around €40m plus add-ons. This could be the structure of the deal. @FabrizioRomano
