Rodrygo ending up at Arse/Pool/Citeh would be a disaster for us

especially Pool or Arse

I really don’t see any of those clubs being willing to pay that much for a winger this summer. Especially when they’re all linked with super expensive players in other areas of need.

I can see Arsenal. Zubimendi clause just 60m euros. Gyokeres £60m pounds and add Rodrygo. Sell some players and they fixed all weak links.

Probably Arsenal, Arteta seems keen on spending big.  

Zubi + striker + Rodrygo would be a pretty good window for them.

Yes. Dew it.

So after watching Werner and Nkunku struggle in the EPL, we're going to spend 80+ million on that Frankfurt striker? 

Wasn't this the same guy who couldn't do anything against Spurs in the Europa League? 

What a waste of money.   

(I'm sort of hoping we don't get UCL football next season, just so we end up not signing these average players).

Arsenal are going to get Gykores and Rodrygo

Maybe. If the Arse owners are finally willing to go big and get over that final hurdle I guess. But them spending Man City or Chelsea type money in a single window I still have to see to believe. They showed with Rice that they’re willing to go big for one single player but we’re yet to really see them splurge on a handful of expensive players all in one window.

Same can really be said about Liverpool.

EXCL: Newcastle make contact for Chelsea target

Blues may look elsewhere

https://siphillipstalkschelsea.substack.com/p/excl-newcastle-make-contact-for-Chelsea

One Chelsea target this summer that had been looking destined to happen, and still might of course, is Jamie Gittens of Dortmund. The English youngster was not the most popular of targets amongst Blues fans, and those fans might be pleased to hear that it is all of a sudden not looking as likely as it had been. This is for two reasons. 

SPTC sources have heard that Newcastle have come in for Gittens and have reached out to make an enquiry about signing him this summer. Other clubs are also closely monitoring the situation of Gittens too, Chelsea have very much been one of them. There are some scenarios where Chelsea can still look to do a deal with Dortmund that includes Gittens, because the Blues have some players that the German side are interested in as well, namely Carney Chukwuemeka.

So there is absolutely something that can still be done here if Chelsea really want to go all in for Gittens. The second reason that Chelsea may be about to look elsewhere for a new winger this summer if his fee looks like it could now be rather more inflated since they have got Champions League football, and that will put Chelsea off.

Nothing has been decided on Gittens yet, but Chelsea would be unlikely to enter any wars to sign him and will only move if at a reasonable fee, or if they can do some sort of unofficial swap deal. Rodrygo from Real Madrid is absolutely a winger option that we are exploring, as we reported last week. Remember, Chelsea can offer more wages if they get UCL and will also be willing to go out of their structure for the right players.

Sources: Chelsea eyeing Cristhian Mosquera but have PSG problem

A Dean Huijsen alternative pops up

https://siphillipstalkschelsea.substack.com/p/sources-Chelsea-eyeing-cristhian

Chelsea missed out on signing priority centre back target Dean Huijsen from Bournemouth purely because Real Madrid decided to make a move in the end. They hadn’t entered the race and Chelsea thought they had their man, but as I always reported, if Real Madrid entered for Huijsen then it would be game over for all the other interested sides because that was always his first choice move.

He got his dream move, and Chelsea now move on to other centre back targets as they look to bring in at least one new one, possibly two, this summer.

One alternative to Huijsen is Valencia’s Cristhian Mosquera [featured image]. The 20-year-old Spanish youth international has had an excellent season and has emerged as one of the best U21 defenders in Europe.

He is believed to be available for a fee of around £16m this summer and has a host of clubs lining up at his door. The stumbling block for Chelsea is PSG, as SPTC sources have heard that they are VERY interested in signing him. But he has now become a serious option for Chelsea this summer as well as they weigh up targets after a year of scouting him this season.

Oh look, that prick from Sky Sports News has been briefed to inform us that we won’t be buying any big name players in the summer market. We will double down on buying young players to grow together and win trophies together.

shock.

Who are Chelsea's untouchables?

Or rather, who should they be?

https://siphillipstalkschelsea.substack.com/p/who-are-chelseas-untouchables

With the next summer transfer window now right around the corner and a lot of the talk being about who Chelsea might sell and who they might buy, I wanted to speak on ‘untouchables’ seeing as though this is a word used a lot in Chelsea briefings.

So in my opinion, an untouchable player is a player that you would not even think about selling no matter what the offer is. So an indispensable player. A player who has to be one of the first names on the team sheet every single week and would walk into most other teams.

We did something similar to this recently, but I’m intrigued again to see how many players in our squad you feel are or should be untouchable?

Let’s vote on our Chelsea untouchables! I’m not going to bother voting on players like Robert Sanchez, because unless someone is going to do it as a joke, ain’t nobody voting him as an untouchable! So, are these players untouchable in YOUR opinion? As in you would not even think about selling….
