The COVID-19 crisis has really not been ideal.....

@Vesper, can you copy and paste the article in? The Athletic have craftily disabled that function on their app. :

That is one thing but think the club are more concerned about the rape allegations right now.

Well, we don't know yet...

You are not wrong about Alonso but he did get the sentence for the drunk driving incident before being bought by the club while CHO is under the club's books with this happening. Somewhat different scenarios. IF he is found guilty, would be interesting to see the club's reaction...

Clubs can return to training tomorrow but have to maintain social distancing...

It could affect CHO mentally, especially when he is still young. But luckily for him, it doesn't seem like fans will be allowed into stadiums for some time.

Oh boy...

It's now in the Daily Mail too...

Not sure if this is true since it's The Sun but...

‘Kepa knows he can’t outlast Lampard at Chelsea’ - £71m keeper isn’t ‘finished article’, says Green

Are Barcelona even a club? It's so hard to understand their transfer strategy!

It's hilarious though. Not that other players are doing it wrong but Haaland sure does bring something different, like not giving what the interviewer wants etc.

The article also states we have spoken to his representatives... A bit baffled as to why would anyone even consider joining Barcelona or Man United at this point...

This is from ESPN. So make of it what you will... https://www.espn.com/soccer/soccer-transfers/story/4094913/chelsea-to-offload-players-jorginhokante-not-on-list-sources - Ready to sell several first-team players - Bakayoko, Alonso, Emerson, Batshuayi and Zappacosta - Wary of committing around 120 million on one player - in Sancho - after the financial pressure from COVID-19 - Lampard keen on signing Chilwell - Werner and Aubameyang also under consideration - No plans to sell Jorginho and Kante, unless the players ask for a move - No indication of interest on Coutinho

Hardly matters. Jorginho turns 29 in December. Only 1 year difference between them.
