  1. Emma Hayes to leave Chelsea Women at end of season https://theathletic.com/5030535/2023/11/04/emma-hayes-Chelsea-leaves/ Chelsea Women have confirmed that manager Emma Hayes will leave at the end of the season. Hayes joined Chelsea in 2012 and throughout her time with the club, she secured six Women’s Super League (WSL) titles, five FA Cups, two FA Women’s League Cups, one FA Women’s Spring Series trophy, and one Women’s Community Shield. Chelsea’s co-sporting directors Laurence Stewart and Paul Winstanley said: “Emma has been one of the biggest drivers of change in women’s football. Her achievements at Chelsea are unrivalled and will live in the club’s history forever. “Given everything she has contributed to Chelsea in over a decade with the club, and the legacy she leaves behind, we would never stand in her way when she felt it was the right time to pursue a new challenge. “We are pleased that she will remain with the club for the remainder of the season to give us the time to identify her successor. “There will be plenty of time to celebrate Emma’s many achievements at the club and to give her the farewell she deserves, but for now, as she always has been, Emma will be solely focused on making this season as successful as possible for Chelsea.” Chelsea chairman Todd Boehly and co-controlling owner Behdad Eghbali added: “Emma’s contribution to Chelsea cannot be understated. She has been a pioneer in women’s football and is hugely respected within the game. We look forward to continuing to work together over the coming months.” The 47-year-old guided Chelsea to a domestic treble in 2021, and has been named manager of the season six times, as well as LMA WSL manager of the season on five occasions. Last year, Hayes was awarded with an OBE for her services to football. This followed an MBE she received in 2016. Chelsea Women are currently top of the WSL and are next in action this Sunday away to Everton.

  9. Disappointment for Liverpool and Chelsea as long-term target signs new deal Luiz Guilherme's new release clause is €55m https://thedailybriefing.io/p/disappointment-for-liverpool-and Despite being just 17 years of age, Palmeiras midfielder, Luiz Guilherme, has long been coveted by some of the biggest clubs in Europe. Known for his pace and ability to get forward and support his attackers, including the Real Madrid bound Endrick, the player was recently named by The Guardian as being one of the best players in the world born in 2006. It was thought that there was a strong likelihood that he would follow Endrick to Europe with both Liverpool and Chelsea amongst the teams credited with a long-term interest. However, a recent decision by Luiz Guilherme will put any thoughts of a transfer to the Premier League or elsewhere on hold for a while now. Daily Briefing columnist, Fabrizio Romano, announced that the player had signed a new deal with Palmeiras exclusively on his X account: Official, confirmed. Luiz Guilherme signs new long term deal until 2026 as €55m release clause is included. Bayern, Liverpool, Chelsea and more European top clubs have been following Luiz for long time. Of course, that doesn’t necessarily mean that any club is out of the picture, but what the new contract does do is give the Brazilian outfit some peace of mind that they will get the going rate for their player when it’s decided he should be sold. It may mean that other targets are looked at in the meantime, and even if it’s decided that Luiz Guilherme will stay with Palmeiras until the end of his new deal, he will still only be 20 years of age but by then will have had a full three seasons of experience in the Brazilian league. That may even make him a more attractive proposition to potential buying clubs.
  10. Could Chelsea come back in for Rayan Cherki amid Lyon struggles? https://thedailybriefing.io/i/138299261/could-Chelsea-come-back-in-for-rayan-cherki-amid-lyon-struggles Lyon’s miserable season continues and there are already clubs lining up to raid them for some of their best players this January. I think relegation is starting to look a very serious possibility for Lyon after just three points and zero victories from the club’s first nine games of the season, despite John Textor seeming to laugh the idea off at every opportunity. If you look at Lyon’s record, though, it’s no laughing matter - they’re doing worse at this moment in time than a lot of other previously relegated clubs have done by this stage of the season. Lyon may feel they’re too good to go down, but you just have to look at some of the clubs in Ligue 2 right now like Bordeaux and Saint-Etienne - no club is too big to go down in France, and I think Lyon are absolutely in a relegation battle. EXCL: Chelsea striker targets, realistic Arsenal midfield signing, the mood inside Man Utd, and more BEN JACOBS · 31 OCT Read full story Fabio Grosso has just come in as manager and I think it’s a questionable appointment, while we also know that several players wanted out in the summer. It’s not a happy place to be at the moment. Rayan Cherki is one name whose future could be in doubt, and there’ll be plenty of European clubs monitoring him and other players because as well as sporting issues on the pitch at the moment there are also real financial difficulties for Lyon. A lot of players already wanted to jump ship before the start of the season, and they still could. Cherki will certainly be one to keep an eye on, though I don’t know for sure if Chelsea plan to come back in for him - the Blues had an interest in him in the past, but one problem with him is that clubs are becoming increasingly aware that he has massive attitude problems. Cherki doesn’t always conduct himself like he should on the pitch or in training, and there is quite a problematic relationship between the player’s entourage and the club, so that could get in the way of him developing to the best of his ability. He’s considered one of the most talented players to ever come through Lyon’s academy, so there’s no doubt he could become a top, top player one day, but you just have to look at reports of how things have gone in the first few weeks under Grosso - it points to him being a difficult character and I think that’s made a few European clubs think twice about trying to make a move for him. Still, while Lyon remain hamstrung financially, there are sure to be clubs who try to pounce on that opportunity. Whether or not Chelsea are one of those who decide to go back in for him, it depends how much due diligence they’ve done on the player. They’ll have to decide if it’s worth the risk, because some clubs have looked closely at Cherki before deciding to think twice. These issues have been there for a while, not just with Grosso - there’s definitely room for him to improve the way he responds to what coaches are asking of him, and to deal better with constructive criticism. He has immense potential, but at the moment it looks like unless he changes, it’s going to be difficult for him to really tap into that potential and have the career he’s truly capable of.
  11. Chelsea https://thedailybriefing.io/i/138491753/Chelsea Mauricio Pochettino has defended Nicolas Jackson after fan criticism: “For different reasons, Jackson is now suffering. Nico needs support. I believe in him, really. Only problem is time. I don’t want to give examples, but he arrived at Chelsea in a situation that is not easy for him. We cannot be unfair in the analysis.” Pochettino: “The important thing is to trust the ideas, the judgment and analysis of why certain things have not happened. To help the organisation to be better and to improve, and not to make the same mistakes again.” Rayan Cherki has been linked with Chelsea but could there be issues putting off the Blues and other top clubs?
