2. Chelsea set to move on more than 10 players:

Chelsea till date have sold players worth almost £150 million and with window closing in September, CFC have more than 10 players which they are looking to move on from their books. Trevoh Chalobah has been attracting interest from Inter Milan but Chelsea’s demands of inserting a buy back clause has stalled the deal. Ethan Ampadu has also been made available by the club for £12million with just one year left on his deal amid interest from clubs in Italy, Spain and Premier League sides in England. The Blues will demand a sizeable sell-on fee alongside the £12m fee after seeing the Welsh international play a key role at Spezia last season. Players like Malang Sarr and David Datro Fofana are linked with moves to recently acquired club Strasbourg FC but Sarr will be sold and Fofana will be loaned out.

Another player who will be loaned out will be Cesare Casadei who made quite an impression at Reading FC and now will be loaned out to either a Premier League side or a Serie A club. Abdul Baba Rahaman will be terminating his contract with mutual agreement and will be joining Greek side PAOK FC. Christian Pulisic is leaning to join AC Milan over Lyon despite the French side making a move acceptable offer to the club for the USA international. Callum Hudson Odoi is attracting interest from both Saudi and Premier League clubs and will be available for £15 million. Hakim Ziyech failed his medical to Al Nassr and the club would again have to sound out clubs for the Morocco international. Pierre Emerick Aubameyang might have his contract terminated with not many clubs interested in paying any fee for him and Romelu Lukaku remains the most difficult deal to do with the player adamant to move to Inter Milan only.

3. Chelsea sign three exciting youngsters:

Chelsea FC have announced the signing of Alex Matos from Norwich City FC to strengthen the U21s team next season. The 18-year-old versatile midfielder split his time between their U18 and U23 sides last season, making 13 assists in the second division of the PL2. Chelsea also confirmed the signing of 18 years old Diego Moreira from Benfica B side and is currently with the Portugal selection at the U21 Euros. And out of the blue came in a tweet from Fabrizio Romano stating that CFC have agreed a fee worth €15m fee for 2004 talented Brazilian striker Ângelo from Santos. Ângelo agreed personal terms on a deal until 2029 and he’ll start pre season with the first team. If deemed good enough by Mauricio Pochettino, he might be a part of the first team but it seems more realistic that the Brazilian forward will be loaned out to Strasbourg FC to gain some much needed European experience.
