Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso believes club captain Reece James has what it takes to become one of the world's best central midfielders. Following Enzo Fernandez's massive departure to Manchester City and a mounting injury crisis at Stamford Bridge, the Blues boss is ready to heavily rely on his star right-back in the middle of the park.

Mikel Arteta has lauded Xabi Alonso and Chelsea for their shrewd acquisition of Emiliano Martinez as Arsenal prepare to host their London rivals in a blockbuster early-season clash. The Spanish tactician believes the World Cup-winning goalkeeper is exactly what the Blues needed to solidify their defence and significantly enhance their Premier League title credentials this term.

Enzo Fernandez has been handed an immediate reality check at Manchester City after manager Enzo Maresca confirmed the midfielder has been excluded from the club’s official leadership group. Despite his record-breaking arrival and previous experience as a skipper at Chelsea, the Argentine will have to wait for his chance to lead the Etihad giants.

Emiliano Martinez has changed in his Chelsea squad number just days after inheriting John Terry's famous No.26 jersey. Following Robert Sanchez’s deadline-day departure to Como, the Argentina international has swiftly claimed the vacant No.1 shirt despite previously declaring he would wear the legendary defender's number with immense 'pride'.
