 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.

There were simply too many of them last season and they are still selling actively.

The incredible 21-year old wants to join Chelsea.  Chelsea have nearly agreed a deal with Brighton for the transfer of Moises Caicedo this summer. That is according to journalist Rudy Galetti. After weeks of speculation, Moises Caicedo may be on the verge of joining Chelsea and securing a high-profile switch to Stamford Bridge.

He adds that the Ecuador international is pushing hard to secure a move to the Bridge this summer. “Moises Caicedo, the talks between Chelsea and Brighton are entering in the fi...
