This is why Chelsea signed Cole Palmer | Cole Palmer Goals, incredible skills and assists.

 Cole Palmer is Manchester City's hottest and exciting talents.  It had been reported that an agreement has been reached with Manchester City over a deal for Palmer in the region of £45million. The west London outfit had seen an initial offer worth £35million for the 21-year-old turned down, with a second bid on Wednesday night agreed upon and a medical reported to be booked for Thursday. Palmer is keen on a move to Stamford Bridge as he searches for more consistent game time after receiving the nod in a handful of games for Pep Guardiola. The England youth international has played a big part in a few games so far this season, scoring huge goals in the Community Shield and UEFA Super Cup. The forward joining Chelsea will answer a request from Mauricio Pochettino to add another forward option to his ranks, with the versatility to play on the wings as well as at No.10. He will also have Premier League experience, something requested of a target for the head coach, albeit with limited

Thiago Silva finally breaks silence on why he keeps passing armband to Enzo Fernández.

 The veteran has revealed the motive behind his actions.  It appears that Thiago Silva has no interest in taking on captaincy duties at Chelsea after twice passing the armband on in recent clashes against West Ham and Luton. The Brazilian is the most experienced player in Chelsea's set-up at the age of 38 and boasts success in Brazil, Italy, France and England. However, Silva evidently doesn't want to take on armband responsibilities within the team and has appeared to refuse becoming stand-in captain during matches. Reece James is Chelsea's new permanent skipper but is side-lined after suffering a hamstring injury during training. That has paved the way for England full-back Ben Chilwell to take on leadership duties in his absence, however, the defender is yet to complete 90 minutes for Chelsea this campaign, meaning another on-field captain has had to fill in. Silva previously wanted to become Chelsea captain under Mauricio Pochettino but was snubbed by the Argentinian wh

"We do not fear Chelsea and their expensive signings." Rob Edwards aims dig at Chelsea's summer spending spree ahead of Luton Town clash.

Luton Town will be playing their second game of the Premier League against Chelsea, a member of the Big Six. The Hatters boss, Rob Edwards, has come out to say that he isn’t afraid of Chelsea and their expensive lineup.  Luton Town earned promotion to the Premier League for the first time since the 1991/92 season. Due to financial problems, they were eventually relegated to the fifth tier of English football and even played non-league football. They became the first club to return to the top division after getting relegated to the fifth tier. On the other hand, Chelsea is one of the most successful football clubs in England and the world. They are also one of the Premier League’s Big Six teams. They’ll pose a challenge for any side, not to talk of a newly promoted team. The gap between Luton Town and Chelsea becomes wider if you consider their spending capacity. Edward’s side has spent just €20M this summer, while Chelsea has spent about €400M. The Blues have been looking to reshape th

This is why Chelsea signed Deivid Washington | Deivid Washington skills, goals, and assists

 Deivid Washington is one of Chelsea's youngest Brazilian hotshots under Todd Boehly.  Chelsea confirmed the signing of the 18-year-old forward on Thursday afternoon on a 7+1 year contract.  Chelsea faced stiff competition from AS Monaco for Deivid.  Although Deivid Washington is one name unfamiliar to Chelsea fans, we'll take a brief look into his profile and just why he is the perfect choice for Chelsea.  How good is Deivid and where does he play? Deivid primarily operates as a centre-forward but is versatile enough to be deployed on either wing, too, potentially making him an extremely useful attacking option for the Blues.  Deivid made his professional debut in April and has gone on to feature 16 times for the Santos first team in all competitions, scoring twice. He scored on each of his first two starts for the iconic club from Sao Paulo, who have boasted such superstars as Pele and Neymar over the years.

Three Chelsea players who have still not spoken with Mauricio Pochettino over their future at the club.

Three Chelsea players have still not even spoken to Mauricio Pochettino. In addition to Romelu Lukaku, Callum Hudson-Odoi and Malang Sarr have not spoken to Mauricio Pochettino since his arrival at Stamford Bridge. That is according to the Evening Standard. So, what is the situation involving Malang Sarr and Callum Hudson-Odoi at Chelsea? Let’s take a look… What’s the story? Well, Lukaku not speaking to Pochettino has already been well documented in Italian news outlets as well as the Telegraph here in England. However, there has been no mention of any other Chelsea player blanking the Argentine – until now. The Evening Standard believe Sarr and Hudson-Odoi have not said a single word to Pochettino since he replaced Frank Lampard in west London, as both players still find themselves with uncertain futures at Chelsea. All three players are currently training with the Under-21 side at Chelsea as they await their destiny. Chelsea remain in talks with Juventus over a deal for Lukaku, accor

"I will not leave Chelsea." £22M star refuses to leave Chelsea despite club asking him to leave.

Chelsea have now told £22m player they'll be accepting bids for him, but he doesn't want to leave. Chelsea have now told Trevoh Chalobah that bids for him will be accepted between now and transfer deadline day next Friday. That is according to Matt Law of the Telegraph – who was speaking on the London Is Blue podcast. So, what is the latest on Trevoh Chalobah at Chelsea? Let’s take a look… What’s the story? Well, Chelsea have apparently told the 24-year-old that they will now accept any offers for him which meet their valuation. According to Gianluca Di Marzio, the Blues would take £22m for Chalobah after another summer of heavy spending. However, the Chelsea No.14 does not want to leave Stamford Bridge, and plans to fight for his place under Mauricio Pochettino. Chalobah has not even been named on the bench by the Argentine in either of Chelsea’s first two Premier League games of the 2023/24 campaign. Pochettino has shoved the Freetown-born defender further down the pecking or

Romeo Lavia Chelsea training and return date confirmed.

 EXCLUSIVE: Romeo Lavia training and return date confirmed.  Romeo Lavia was a standout player for Southampton last season as the club were relegated from the Premier League and he has since signed for Chelsea for a fee that could reach £58million The 19-year-old Belgian midfielder only signed for the Blues from Saints last week for an initial £53million, rising to £58million with add-ons. Lavia was not named in the Blues squad for their 3-1 defeat to West Ham on Sunday where fellow new midfield arrival Moises Caicedo, signed for £115million from Brighton, gave away a late penalty. The teenager was hugely impressive last season in a poor Southampton team that suffered relegation from the Premier League. Lavia caught the attention of several top clubs with his performances, with Liverpool seeing three bids rejected for him this summer before he moved to Stamford Bridge The Blues play twice more before the transfer window closes on September 1, facing newly-promoted Luton Town at the Bri

This is why Chelsea want to sign Arsenal striker Folarin Balogun.

 HOME  | Chelsea News  |  Transfers • Arsenal striker Folarin Balogun is reportedly interested in joining Chelsea before the transfer window closes. • The 22-year-old has been left out of Arsenal's squad for their first two league games this season, and could leave the club in the coming days. Chelsea have registered an interest in signing Balogun, and he is open to moving to Stamford Bridge, according to the Evening Standard. The Blues have made contact with Arsenal about a potential deal, with the Gunners believed to want in the region of £50m before allowing Balogun to leave.  Balogun enjoyed a breakthrough campaign while on loan at Stade Reims last season, netting 21 league goals to steer his side to a mid-table finish. Chelsea have clearly been impressed by his goalscoring abilities, as they look to fix their own woes in front of goal. The west London outfit scored just 38 league goals last term, fewer than relegated sides Leicester City and Leeds United. The club have brought

REVEALED: How Crystal Palace fought off Chelsea to keep Michael Olise at the club.

 Home  New REVEALED: How Crystal Palace fought off Chelsea and Todd Boehly to keep star winger Michael Olise at the club Crystal Palace saw off Chelsea advances and have kept Michael Olise at the club • The Blues thought they had triggered a £35m release clause in Olise's contract • But Palace had the last laugh - and have made cheeky digs at Chelsea since then  Crystal Palace fans were delighted by the news that Michael Olise on Friday signed a new and improved four-year deal to keep him at the club.  It had appeared Chelsea were set to seal the talented young winger's signature, but Olise shocked many by putting pen to paper with the south London side. For Palace, co-owner Steve Parish and manager Roy Hodgson, the news came as a massive boost after losing talismanic forward Wilfried Zaha to Galatasaray on a free earlier this summer.  And the complex terms of the release clause in his contract Chelsea believed they had triggered - but, in fact, had not - have now been revealed

This is why Chelsea signed Djordje Petrović | Petrović crazy saves, cross claiming, aerial ability, and passing | Best saves.

 Djordje Petrovic is the latest player to sign for Chelsea this summer. Following the arrivals of Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia, the Blues have now spent over £850million since Todd Boehly took over in May 2022. His signing comes after Kepa Arrizabalaga's Real Madrid departure and Bettinelli's injury. Chelsea currently do not have a second choice goalkeeper and are desperate for a backup for Robert Sanchez who still appears quick shaky between the sticks.  Hence, the signing of Serbian sensation, Djordje Petrović. He signs on a seven year-deal with the option of a further year for £16M.  Below is a footage of Petrović's best saves and cross claiming that makes him the perfect choice for Chelsea:

Cesare Casadei scores debut goal to secure win for Leicester City.

• The Chelsea Loanee netted the winning goal just after coming off the bench in the 92nd minute to help Leicester City to a win.  Leicester City maintained their perfect start to the season in dramatic fashion as Cesare Casadei came off the bench to score an injury-time winner at home to Cardiff City. Wanya Marcal-Madivadua fired the dominant hosts into a first-half lead with an emphatic first-time finish. But against the run of play, Aaron Ramsey equalised before the break with a spectacular swerving strike from almost 35 yards. That inspired a second-half revival from Cardiff, who wasted a fine chance to win as Yakou Meite shot wide, before Casadei - signed on loan from Chelsea on Tuesday - struck from close range to save Leicester. Casadei's goal came as a relief for Leicester, finishing powerfully after fellow substitute Jamie Vardy appeared to be fouled in the penalty area to make it three wins from three under new manager Enzo Maresca. What a goal it was as well.  CLICK BELOW

THREE players that must never be sold if Mauricio Pochettino wants to remain successful in Chelsea.

 Three players that must stay at Chelsea for Pochettino’s plan to work.  Pundit Gary Neville has named two players that are important to Mauricio Pochettino’s success at Chelsea. According to Neville, the two players are Reece James and Ben Chilwell as he added that they must remain fit following their 1-1 draw with Liverpool on Sunday. Recall that James and Chilwell went off with knocks in the second half of the game at Stamford Bridge. It is no news that the two defenders have struggled for form and fitness in recent seasons, and Neville says they are crucial to how Pochettino wants to set up his team. “What we’ve seen [on Sunday] is that Chelsea have fantastic wing-backs but they’ve both gone off, first game of the season. “That will destroy Pochettino’s plans. If you’re going to play wing-backs, they have to be outstanding players of high quality, who attack like wingers and defend like full-backs, and they have that. “But the big question mark is if those two can stay fit. Those w

Chelsea now set to sign £130,000-per-week player who warned Ben Chilwell not to join the Blues in the past

  HOME | Chelsea News. Chelsea now reportedly interested in signing ‘brilliant’ player who warned Ben Chilwell against joining them. Reports have claimed recently that Chelsea are interested in signing goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel this summer. According to The Guardian, the Blues are considering a move for the Denmark international as a direct response to the club letting Kepa Arrizabalaga leave on loan. It emerged over the past few days the Kepa was open to a move away from Stamford Bridge, and the club seemed as if they weren’t going to stand in his way. This came after they struck a deal to sign Robert Sanchez from Brighton. The Spaniard made his first appearance for his new club yesterday, and looked relatively assured up against Liverpool. There was nothing he could do about Luis Diaz’s opening goal, although there were some notable moments where his presence would have given supporters plenty of encouragement. With no Kepa though, the Blues will likely need a new goalkeeper to of

Mauricio Pochettino explains decision to make Reece James captain over Thiago Silva.

 The Chelsea coach has spoken out on his decision to make Reece James captain. Chelsea will be back in action against Liverpool on Sunday and head coach Mauricio Pochettino spoke on several issues affecting the squad.  One of such was his decision to make Reece James captain over Thiago Silva.  Earlier this week, Reece James was appointed captain of Chelsea Football Club, a decision that sparked numerous reactions from Chelsea fans. Thiago Silva was favourite in everyway to become Blues captain given his experience and excellent leadership qualities.  However, Mauricio Pochettino has clarified the issue. Per Football.London, when asked why he chose Reece James to be captain, the Chelsea head coach revealed apart from the leadership qualities seen in the right back, one other reason for the selection was because he came right through the Chelsea Academy, and this was the reason why he was a "perfect" choice for captaincy: "He is not only a player that can be a leader, his

Thiago Silva breaks silence on Chelsea captain snub; reacts to Reece James appointment.

A club statement confirming Reece James' appointment had read: "Reece James has officially been confirmed as Chelsea Football Club’s new captain. On assuming the role of captain, Reece said: 'I'm so happy to take on the role and responsibility,' said James. 'I know I've got big shoes to fill because we have had huge captains here in the past, but I am excited. 'I have been at Chelsea pretty much my whole life. I started here when I was six and to come through the Academy is tough. But to go on and become captain, it's a great feeling for me and my family.' Head coach Mauricio Pochettino said: ‘This is a decision taken by me and the club. We are very pleased Reece will captain the side this season. ‘He leads by example and his attitude and dedication to Chelsea has been

John Terry reacts to Reece James' appointment as Chelsea captain instead of Thiago Silva.

 The Chelsea Legend has reacted to Reece James' appointment as Chelsea captain.  Chelsea legend John Terry has taken to Twitter to give his reaction to the news that Reece James had been named the new club captain. He shared his delight at the decision made by the club, simultaneously congratulating the 23-year-old on what is no doubt a huge honour. Given the fact that Terry held down the position of captain for over a decade at Stamford Bridge, his opinion on who has the armband is more important than most on the situation. There was a decision to be made by Mauricio Pochettino on who would be named the leader of Chelsea for the coming seasons after a number of the senior players departed the club this year. Cesar Azpilicueta has moved to Atletico Madrid, whilst they have also recently said goodbye to Jorginho, N’golo Kante and Mateo Kovacic. Because of this, the England international was selected for the role, with Ben Chilwell handed the responsibility of vice-captain. Plenty of
