🔵Chelsea are now leading the race to sign RB Leipzig centre-back Castello Lukeba ahead of Liverpool, Manchester United and Newcastle.

Lukeba's €90M release clause initially scared off suitors - but Leipzig could now sell for around €60M in this January.

🟢Chelsea are working on a deal for highly-rated Burkina Faso youngster Mohamed Zongo (16) ahead of competition from Manchester City and Manchester United.

not sure if the books would still balance UNLESS we sell players as well

In terms of left-footed CBs, here the only ones remotely available (in January or, more likely summer 2026 and some are CRAZY hard pulls, like my number one/number two CB want on the planet, Alessandro Bastoni, the other number one/two want being the now NOT at all available ambipedal Dean Huijsen, who went to Real Madrid and THAT just so fucked us this season, but hey, no club can compete with Real if they WANT a player badly) that I rate:

10 veterans, in 2 tiers , plus a 17 (18yo in February) youth

  
Alessandro Bastoni 
Murillo  
Alessandro Buongiorno    
Jarrad Branthwaite (but is out until the end of January with a bad hamstring injury, so no way we would buy him in January)
Castello Lukeba   

then

Gonçalo Inácio 
Nico Schlotterbeck (will probably either renew with Dortmund or will go to Bayern)
Sven Botman 
Evan Ndicka 
Konstantinos Koulierakis  

plus the 17yo:

Honest Ahanor (EVERY 'Big 20' or so team on the planet wants him, some more than others, he is the best under 18yo CB prospect playing at Sr team level in Europe atm IMHO)

[Vesper 30,532]

right-footed CBs

same as my left-footed list: 2 tiers of 5 and a teen:

Marc Guéhi (often plays at LCB, but he probably does not want to come back here)
Leny Yoro (very hard pull)
Dayot Upamecano (likely will not come here)
Ousmane Diomande
Joel Ordóñez

then

Tomás Araújo   
Jan Paul van Hecke 
Giorgio Scalvini (IF fully fit)
António Silva
Mohamed Simakan

then a 19yo (just turned 19 four days ago)

Noahkai Banks

The risk of the books not being balanced, would simply mean we can't register them for Europe right? Still would keep someone for the league.

Although, if Maresca and the directors gave more chances to Acheampong, we could manage until end of the season (assuming Fofana also stays fit)

No, if we run afoul of UEFA FFP we cannot play in any UEFA competition

Enzo Maresca on Romeo Lavia:

"It's a muscle problem. We don't know yet when he can be back. We don't know [whether it's long or short term]."

It did work out, look at all the trophies we won before

🔵The 18-year-old midfielder Ayyoub Bouaddi from OSC Lille is being heavily courted by Chelsea FC.

Chelsea is pushing hard.

Lille’s management wants to extend his contract to sell him for more than €50million next summer.

highly talented teenager

You lot want this??!!? This is what you want for our club? It hurts to see the fanbase roll over and accept this shit. It’s fucking painful man. Clownlake have successfully brainwashed the majority of The Blues into accepting mediocrity and allowing our club to be another Leipzig or Dortmund.
