Just walk away. Caicedo will kick up a fuss. They told him a couple of months ago he could leave. No one else will pay anywhere near the asking for. They’ll be forced to sell to us.

Yeah it’s gonna backfire if they ask for an unreasonably high price

At the same time, Caicedo would be a bit stupid to renew then immediately kick up a fuss. All he had to do was ask for a release clause.

Juventus will not play in Europe next season after being banned over breaches of Uefa’s Club Licensing and Financial Fair Play rules,

Haha! Uefa couldn’t ban Chelsea from playing in Europe next year!

Should’ve punished us by putting us in the Europa Conference League.

The only trophy we have not won

Sources believe the Premier League will also be obliged to investigate after “incomplete financial information” was submitted during Abramovich’s ownership. Chelsea could take legal action to recoup financial settlement from former directors Bruce Buck/Marina Granovskaia

L’Équipe have revelaed that Chelsea FC are in negotaitons with Stade Rennais over the signing of 19-year-old Lesley Ugochukwu

According to L’Équipe, Chelsea have been in discussions for about 10 days for the midfielder, whose contract with the Ligue 1 club runs until the summer of 2025. Chelsea are looking to strengthen their midfield following a spate of departures in this area of the pitch.

^That’s a signing for Strasbourg

Supposedly was on Brighton's list as a replacement for Caicedo.

Happy if we've jumped the queue for once.

Breaking: #Chelsea have agreed a deal worth around £23.5M to sign Rennes midfielder Lesley Ugochukwu. A medical is scheduled for the next 24 hours.

[via @TheAthleticFC]

Chelsea have reached verbal agreement with Rennes for Lesley Ugochukwu, deal in place — personal terms agreed, long term contract 🚨🔵🇫🇷 #CFC

Ugochukwu will sign for Chelsea then talks will follow to decide about loan to Strasbourg.

Fee around €27m, as @AdamLeventhal reports.

Spending a ridiculous amount on the loan army but making little to no progress on improving the current team.

Don’t need to sign anyone other than McTominay

More concerned we still need to bin Lukaku & Ziyech and hopefully Cucurella

The first two importantly don’t want them at cobham when we get back though

At this stage, it remains unclear whether Lesley Ugochukwu would go on loan to RC Strasbourg once #Chelsea sign him from Rennes.

[via @NizaarKinsella]


Likely he stays if we don't get Caicedo

Yeah but it's a huge lack of experience in the team and especially midfield.

Don't think Poch will be too pleased if this is the final squad.

When are signing McTommers then ?

Don’t need to sign anyone other than McTominay

The Mourinho trolling a few months ago was better.

just because you secretly agreed with Mourinho stint no3

Damn right, hence good troll (for me). That wasn't sarcasm.

Just read that Tyler Adam’s has a £20M relegation release clause at Leeds. That’s a bargain for a decent defensive midfield player. I’d go for him right now.

Just play this kid we bought for like 25 mil, spending so much on these kids might as well utilise a couple of them.

Hojlund close to United move apparently
