Mykhailo Mudryk looks set to go on loan this season as he comes back to playing football following his 20-month ban for a doping charge that was eventually dropped, and it looks like there’s some decent bit of interest in the 25-year-old speedy winger. While Mudryk did take part in our preseason tour, it was […]
Forgotten man Deivid Washington looks set to close the Chelsea chapter of his young career, having reportedly agreed a permanent move to sister-club RC Strasbourg. According to L’Equipe, the BlueCo beancounters are recording this as a €10m transaction, which is a fairly hefty valuation for a player with a grand total of three (3) senior […]
Shakhtar Donetsk, who have not been able to play games in actual Donetsk since 2014 (due to all the conflict in the region with Russia), have been looking for a stadium fit for Champions League football this season, and after many weeks of negotiations, and just a few weeks before the group stage begins, have […]
We’re now just a few days away from Chelsea’s first game of the new season — Monday night against Fulham at Craven Cottage — and hopefully the start of a brand new and greatly successful era as well under the guidance of Xabi Alonso. In a recent survey by The Athletic, the Chelsea fanbase ranked […]
In what feels like maybe a typo with an extra zero added, there are, as per Ben Jacobs & Co, three teams in “the race” for Chelsea striker Liam Delap with a potential £40-50m deal awaiting the winner at the finish line. A deal and a steal, if we’re being honest! Where else could you […]

As expected, Axel Disasi is heading to Crystal Palace. Unfortunately and somewhat unexpectedly — or perhaps expectedly? — he is heading there only just on loan. And there’s not even a buy-option! That’s definitely unexpected. According to RMC Sport’s Fabrice Hawkins, Palace and Chelsea have a “verbal agreement” over all this, with Palace now needing […]
It feels like Reggie Walsh has been around forever, but that’s just because he made his senior debut aged 16.5 — third youngest in club history, as well as our youngest ever player in European competition. He’s gone on to feature four times for the first-team in the last two seasons, but now that he’s […]
There are a little less than two weeks left in the summer transfer window, and there are a little more than a dozen Chelsea players who still need their futures sorted during that time. The exact number is a bit hard to define as some might have the option to simply stick around in the […]
Chelsea’s ownership structure could get quite a bit simplified in the near future as the Financial Times reports that Todd Boehly and Mark Walter are “in talks” to sell their stakes in the club to majority owners Clearlake Capital (i.e. Behdad Eghbali and José E. Feliciano). The private investment firm partnered with Boehly and Walter […]
