Olympique Youssoufia Overview

After finishing last season outside the European places, Chelsea have been rebuilding under new boss Xabi Alonso. They should not be underestimated.

For some football fans, the summer is the part of the calendar that they look forward to the most - and that's not just because it's filled by a World Cup every four years! Rather, it's because the end of the season means only one thing: It's time for transfers! The 2026 window is once again proving to be busy, with some huge names making big-money moves before deadline day on September 1.

Aston Villa have officially confirmed the arrival of Alejandro Garnacho from Chelsea as Unai Emery continues to reshape his squad for the new campaign. The Argentina international moves to Villa Park on an initial season-long loan deal that includes a structured path toward a permanent stay in the West Midlands.

Chelsea could have a problem on their hands when Enzo Fernandez returns from his post-World Cup holiday - both figuratively and literally. The midfielder and his outspoken agent have made it abundantly clear that he wants to leave Stamford Bridge this summer, and following the ugly conclusion to Argentina's quest for glory in North America, Enzo is now expected to "explore his options". The problem is, he might not have any.
