We will buy Saul if he plays good for us. Gallagher and Gilmour are knocking on the door... We are following Rice and Tchouameni for years now. And you can add Bellingham on the list... Add Kessie in our squad, he would have Barkley, RLC status... well yes, these 3 are above him in my book Quote Rice and Tchouameni for years now. And you can add Bellingham our CMF/DMF situation is both glorious and yet about to become SUPER complicated over the next 2 years or so, maybe sooner OhForAGreavsie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing to with Jorginho as he is playing in different position. Bellingham would only make sense if we doesn't buy Saul.

Also, I believe Saul will end up just being cover till next summer. Edited September 11, 2021 by LAM09 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't watched Kessie since he was originally linked to us a few years ago. Although I was initially impressed by his power, I wasn't a fan of bringing him here. At that time I didn't see evidence of there being enough technical quality to his game. Until I do watch him some more there is no way for me to move away from that opinion. Jude Bellingham on the other hand is a player that I love. I desperately hoped we would get him from Birmingham even though I could see as clearly as everyone else could that we were not in the running. Worse, the feeling radiating through the ether now is that like Haaland, Bellingham has no real interest in Chelsea. These two will both be coveted by all the big clubs but, despite the assiduous PR efforts of his agents, I don't feel that would be the case with Kessie.

I think he's improved considerably since his time at Atalanta. We have supposedly made an offer to him along with PSG, so it will be interesting to see if anything comes of it. I don't know where I stand with Bellingham; he's a very good player, especially at his age with years to improve, but I don't see us offering a fee close to Lukaku's, and I think that would be wise.

Vesper 30,218 Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 finally a link with us to Bastoni Romelu Lukaku recommends Alessandro Bastoni and Milan Skriniar to Chelsea https://metro.co.uk/2021/09/13/romelu-lukaku-recommends-two-signings-for-Chelsea-to-sign-after-failed-jules-kounde-transfer-15250359/ Romelu Lukaku has recommended Inter duo Alessandro Bastoni and Milan Skriniar to Chelsea’s hierarchy, according to reports in Italy. Chelsea wanted to add a new centre-back to Thomas Tuchel’s squad this summer and pushed hard to land Jules Kounde from Sevilla. However, the Champions League holders were unable to reach an agreement with Sevilla after the Spanish club raised their asking price in the closing stages of the transfer window. Chelsea believed they had a verbal agreement with Sevilla over the fee, but the La Liga side upped that figure by €15 million (£12.8m). According to Sport Mediaset in Italy, Chelsea remain in the market for a new centre-back and are now considering Inter pair Bastoni and Skriniar. The report claims that Chelsea’s decision comes following a recommendation from Lukaku, who played with them both at Inter. Bastoni would represent the more inexperienced option for Chelsea as the 22-year-old is only in his third season with Inter. A deal for Bastoni would also be tricky for Chelsea as the Italy international signed a three-year contract extension with Inter in May, which keeps him tied to the club until the summer of 2024. Skriniar, meanwhile, has been linked with a move to the Premier League for several years following his impressive performances for Inter. The 26-year-old will have just a year remaining on his current contract with Inter at the end of the season, which would reduce the asking price for Chelsea if he fails to agree a new deal.

Blues Forever 1,232 Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 Chelsea made an attempt this summer to sign Marquinhos, and were ready to offer up to €100m. Marquinhos and PSG said no. PSG ambitions in the transfer market have convinced the player to continue with the club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
