Everton are interested in signing two Chelsea midfielders
Welcome to Pride of London’s outgoing transfer rumour roundup. Where I shall inform you of the two latest pieces of speculation surrounding existing Chelsea squad members. In addition, we will offer honest opinions over the likelihood of transactions. Along with our views on players and whether the individuals in question should be kept at Stamford Bridge, loaned out or sold. Now that the Boehly-Clearlake takeover has commenced this business will begin to transpire. Moves are likely to increase, especially when the transfer window opens properly on June 10. Though contract negotiations, renewals and free deals can already be undertaken. First of all, I’ll run you through some incoming talk.
Thanks to the always informative, interesting and internal offerings from PoL’s co-editor, Gabe Henderson, we have an apparent attacking shortlist to digest quickly. Which is prior to my more comprehensive analysis of possible Blues departures. Beginning with Jonathan David, the Canadian plays for Lille in France. his value is approximately £40millon. Barcelona’s Ousmane Dembele has representatives talking to Chels’; an agreement might occur in the coming weeks. Lautaro Martinez of Inter Milan would attract a major fee; so this one feels as though it won’t happen. Thomas Tuchel’s team have Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool for company if they are serious about Darwin Nunez.

£60m may get the West Londoners Christopher Nkunku from RB Leipzig; it is reported that Manchester United could rival any Premier League side for the Frenchman. Oh, and the Red Devils are in for Nunez, as well. Finally, with regards to prospective signings, CFC are connected with admiration for Manchester City winger Raheem Sterling. Real Madrid are also tracking Sterling, who has been a polarising character amongst football supporters. Yet his overall productivity on the field is undeniable, for club and country. Dembele feels a much more probable addition to the roster. But rule nothing out under the new, equally ambitious Blues ownership.
Now to the two current Chels’ athletes whom the article is centred on: Conor Gallagher and Billy Gilmour. According to talkSPORT, Everton manager and CFC icon Frank Lampard fancies adding Gallagher to his outfit on Merseyside for next season.
The report claims Lampard is also eyeing up a potential swoop for Gilmour. England’s legendary midfielder can call upon his wide array of contacts on Fulham Road to try to complete his mission. Further ostensible details state that Cesar Azpilicueta wants out of CFC.
It seems particularly unlikely that Tuchel would realistically consider parting with the newly Three Lions man. Particularly following a great term with Crystal Palace, as well as now having proven EPL credentials. While attracting the Scotsman, with chances at the Bridge limited, appears more promising for ‘Lamps’. The 20-year-old is being ‘watched‘ by EFC.
Palace are not confident of temporarily re-signing the 22-year-old, partly due to such a successful and notable 2021/22. It is said by the outlet that while the German boss desires a preseason with Gallagher, the latter is not certain to be involved at this point so must therefore prove his worth.
