New Chelsea forward Joao Pedro claims he is not losing sleep over competition with fellow new signing Liam Delap for a starting lineup slot at No.9. The forward duo are part of a big group of players who moved to Stamford Bridge this summer after Enzo Maresca decided to rebuild his team ahead of the Blues' return to the Champions League this season.

Manchester City have entered the race to sign RB Leipzig’s Xavi Simons, threatening to derail Chelsea’s ongoing pursuit of the Dutch attacker. The Citizens, preparing for Savinho’s likely departure, have made contact with Simons’ camp in an attempt to lure him away. The Blues remain in talks over a £60 million ($80.5m) deal, but City’s late involvement could complicate matters.

Manchester United's Alejandro Garnacho has been spotted holding a vape while getting a new tattoo. The 21-year-old, who has fallen out of favour under Ruben Amorim, is waiting to see if a move to Chelsea materialises before the transfer window closes.

Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca has revealed that he now believes his side are far closer to competing with Liverpool and Arsenal for the Premier League title, compared to a year ago.

Alejandro Garnacho has fuelled speculation over his Manchester United future by sharing a cryptic social media post amid ongoing talks over a £50 million ($67m) move to Chelsea. The 21-year-old, who has reportedly already agreed personal terms with the Blues, gave credence to an imminent switch by posting a gym photo alongside an hourglass emoji.

Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson is reportedly ready to call time on his Stamford Bridge stay as he has set his sights on a move to Newcastle United. But the transfer is hanging by a thread, tied to the future of Newcastle’s star man Alexander Isak, who is being hunted by Liverpool in one of the window’s fiercest transfer battles.

Enzo Maresca has confirmed that both Wesley Fofana and Trevor Chalobah will be fit for the start of the Premier League season.

Chelsea may be faced with a defensive headache for the new season after Trevoh Chalobah was withdrawn against AC Milan due to an injury concern.
