Chelsea Breaking News Today: João Felix's transfer update, Mudryk return date, Jadon Sancho, Nkunku...

All the latest team news and transfer updates around the Bridge...


First up, we've got our eyes on a potential South American gem! Word is, we're keen on River Plate's 17-year-old wonderkid, Franco Mastantuono. This lad sounds like the real deal, but we're not alone in our admiration – Manchester United are also reportedly in the mix for this £38 million-rated talent. Another young Argentine sensation in blue? That has a nice ring to it!

Keeping us all guessing, transfer guru Fabrizio Romano has teased a potentially "intriguing and big" Chelsea transfer deal that's currently in the works. The details are still shrouded in secrecy, which naturally has the rumour mill going into overdrive. Who could it be? What position? The suspense is definitely building!

Interestingly, there are reports from across the channel suggesting a significant shift in Christopher Nkunku's valuation. Apparently, his asking price has been lowered to around £35 million ahead of what's expected to be a busy summer transfer window for the blues. Could this make an exit move for the talented Frenchman more likely? Only time will tell.


The aftermath of that late win against Fulham continues to generate discussion, particularly around Enzo Maresca's rather reserved celebration. Some fans are still scratching their heads over his reaction. It definitely adds an interesting layer to the dynamic between the manager and the fanbase.

Meanwhile, the João Félix saga could be heading towards a permanent conclusion, with reports suggesting several Premier League clubs, are interested as Chelsea are looking to deal. The potential price tag being mentioned is around £60 million. It remains to be seen if Chelsea will get suitors for that amount or rather keep him after his loan spell. More updates will be revealed as time goes.

Shifting our focus to the Women's team, it's a big day for the Blues! Sonia Bompastor's side are in action tonight at Kingsmeadow against Crystal Palace Women in the Women's Super League. Kick-off is at 7:15 PM WAT (which is also UK time right now). After that tough defeat to Barcelona in the Champions League, Bompastor is urging the team to show a strong reaction and bounce back. Unfortunately, they're facing a significant injury list, with several key players sidelined. Let's hope the team can dig deep and secure a vital win tonight.

More Chelsea news:

 * Goalkeeper Interest: Chelsea are reportedly still keen on bolstering their goalkeeping options and have reignited their interest in FC Porto's Diogo Costa. The Portuguese international has a significant release clause, but Chelsea are exploring a potential move.

 


* Sancho's Future Twist: Jadon Sancho's loan move from Manchester United has a clause that has now been met, seemingly triggering a permanent transfer. However, Chelsea reportedly have an option to cancel the deal for a fee, and the player would also need to agree to a new contract. His future at Stamford Bridge remains uncertain amidst competition for winger spots.

 * Academy Prospect Signs: Young midfielder Tyrique George has signed a new contract with Chelsea, further highlighting the club's focus on developing talent from their academy.

 * Mudryk Update: Mykhailo Mudryk remains unavailable for selection due to his continued suspension following a positive test for a banned substance. There's a prevailing belief that his return to playing is scheduled for next season, pending the full clarification of his situation and the lifting of his suspension.

 * Right-Winger Targets: Chelsea are still reportedly prioritizing the signing of a right-winger in the summer, with Athletic Club's Nico Williams and Manchester United's Alejandro Garnacho among the players they are monitoring.

Match Report Chelsea snatched a dramatic late victory against Fulham at Craven Cottage, scoring twice in the final six minutes to overturn a 1-0 deficit. Alex Iwobi had given the home side the lead in the 20th minute, but substitute Tyrique George equalized in the 84th minute before Pedro Neto struck the winner in the 93rd minute. Fulham started brightly and had an early goal disallowed for offside. They took the lead when Ryan Sessegnon dispossessed Reece James and set up Iwobi, who fired a low shot into the bottom corner. Chelsea struggled to create clear-cut chances in the first half and were booed off by their own fans at half-time.

George leveled the score with a well-taken first-time shot from the edge of the box. In the dying minutes, Enzo Fernandez cut the ball back to Neto, who swivelled and smashed a shot into the roof of the...

Chelsea Breaking News Today: Liam Delap decision, Maresca future, Kenan Yildiz, Carney Chukwuemeka, Financial Insights...

Image
Chelsea's interest in signing Liam Delap from Ipswich Town is heating up, with the Blues considered favorites to land the striker. However, Manchester United is also in the mix, and Troy Deeney believes it's "nailed on" that Delap will join either of them. Delap's impressive performances, including 12 goals and 2 assists in 30 appearances, have caught the attention of several top clubs. Delap has a £40m release clause if Ipswich Town gets relegated, making him a more affordable option for Chelsea. Enzo Maresca and co-director recruit Joe Shields know Delap well, having worked with him at Manchester City, which might give Chelsea an edge in the transfer race. Manchester United, Manchester City, and Juventus are also interested in Delap, with City having a buy-back clause and a 20% sell-on fee in their initial deal to sell him to Ipswich.
