Nicolas Jackson is reportedly determined to remain at Chelsea this summer, despite mounting interest from Premier League rivals Aston Villa and potential suitors in La Liga. The Senegalese forward is eager to prove his worth at Stamford Bridge as the club begins a new era under the guidance of manager Xabi Alonso.

Former Manchester United defender Quinton Fortune admits he wishes his old club had re-signed Danny Welbeck this summer. The experienced striker instead completed a surprise move from Brighton to Chelsea, leaving Fortune to praise Xabi Alonso's astute business in the transfer market.

The Brazilians legend Teko Modise has jumped to the defence of the club's decision to bring the former Stellenbosch man to South Africa from Europe. While some fans have questioned the move to sign the winger from Austrian side SV Ried, Modise insists the deal is part of a much larger global strategy.
