Chelsea FC Transfer Rumours: John Stones, Kevin De Bruyne, More!
The transfer season is in full swing, so let’s take a look at what transfer rumours concerning Chelsea FC are flying around the press this morning.
- Chelsea are set to make another bid for Everton’s John Stones, this time worth in excess of £30million, writes The Guardian. After having bids of £20m and £26m rejected by the Toffees, and after Roberto Martinez has come out in criticism of the Blues, Jose Mourinho is still determined to get his man apparently.
- Ex-Chelsea man Kevin De Bruyne is nearing a deal with Manchester City, reports The Daily Mail. City have been closely tracking the Belgian winger throughout the summer, and at one point were thought to be offering around £50million for him. Now, the club seem confident of confirming a £46m deal before the weekend.

- Lastly, The Metro claims that Chelsea should announce the arrival of Abdul Baba Rahman imminently. I literally have no idea why I keep writing about this, but after the deal was supposedly delayed due to an inability to negotiate a fee, apparently that’s not case. Ugh, yeah whatever…
