Chelsea news

After fielding a group of teenagers in their Champions League clash against Ajax earlier this week, Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca is now seemingly set to hand a 15-year-old youth player his senior debut. Resting most of their first-team stars in the European clash, Maresca banked on the youth and they did not disappoint the coach as the Blues registered a thumping 5-1 win over the Dutch giants.

In-form Chelsea return home to take on the impressive Sunderland at Stamford Bridge.

Real Madrid are among the teams looking at Moises Caicedo, with the midfielder's recent change of agents adding intrigue to his future at Chelsea. However, transfer guru Fabrizio Romano has insisted that the Blues remain calm and fully in control of the situation, with the club planning to reward their star midfielder with an improved contract in the coming months.

Estevao Willian has been informed of the Premier League challenges that he must "adapt" to in order to become the superstar Chelsea believe he is. Former Blues defender Marcel Desailly has been assessing the Brazilian wonderkid's early showings in English football, with there clearly still more to come from the exciting teenager as he adjusts to the demands of a testing division.

Hakim Ziyech has completed a stunning return to Moroccan football, joining Wydad Casablanca on a free transfer after being linked with a move to La Liga side Sevilla last month. The 32-year-old, who famously helped Chelsea lift the Champions League in 2021, now returns to his homeland for the first time in his club career.

Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez reportedly finds himself caught up in a love triangle featuring his long-term girlfriend Valentina Cervantes and Wanda Nara, the former wife of fellow Argentina international Mauro Icardi. Surprising rumours have been circulating in South America as Cervantes stars on the nation’s version of Celebrity MasterChef - a show that is hosted by Nara.

Enzo Maresca compared wonderkid Estevao to Cole Palmer after the Brazilian dropped a Champions League masterclass. The teenager, who cost the Blues £29 million from Palmeiras, announced himself to Europe with a dazzling display that left Ajax dazed and the Chelsea faithful dreaming of a bright new era.

Chelsea set a Champions League record during their thrashing of Ajax on Wednesday. Stamford Bridge roared with pride as Chelsea’s young guns produced a night for the ages, dismantling a helpless Ajax side 5-1 in the Champions League. Marc Guiu, Estevao, and Tyrique George, all three still in their teens, etched their names into history with impressive performances across the board.

Chelsea’s kids ran riot against a woeful Ajax side on Wednesday, running out 5-1 winners at Stamford Bridge. There were three penalties, a red card and untold drama on a sodden night in west London as the Blues continued their excellent form and became the first team to have three teenagers score in the same match in Champions League history.

Chelsea have begun talks with Moises Caicedo over a new, more lucrative contract to ward off interest from Spanish giants Real Madrid. The move comes as Caicedo, described as "world-class" by head coach Enzo Maresca, has become a key figure since his £115 million ($154m) arrival from Brighton in 2023. His emergence as one of the Blues' best players has been driven by his improved defensive output, increased on-ball influence, and consistency under Maresca.

Chelsea have been dealt a major blow after they decided not to include a buy-back clause in the deal for Diego Moreira, who has been dubbed the "new Marcelo" amid a strong run of form. Moreira’s latest masterclass came in Strasbourg’s electrifying 3-3 draw with Paris Saint-Germain, where he notched both a goal and an assist against the reigning European champions.

John Terry has revealed his confusion at the fact he does not receive more job offers, while seemingly giving up on his ambition to manage Chelsea. The former England captain has not held a first-team coaching position since working as an assistant at Leicester City in 2023, as offers do not appear to have materialised.

Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca has provided a major update on Liam Delap's injury as he revealed when the striker would return to action. Delap joined the Blues from Ipswich Town in June, immediately after the 2024-25 campaign was over. He participated at the Club World Cup and played a key role in the English giants' triumph in the competition, but he picked up an injury at the beginning of the 2025-26 season.
