Liam Rosenior has given an update on suspended Chelsea winger Mykhailo Mudryk and says he hopes to speak with the Ukrainian soon. The 25-year-old has not played competitively since November 2024, having been charged with a violation of the English FA's anti-doping rules in June 2025 following a failed drug test. Mudryk's career has been stuck in limbo ever since having been placed under an indefinite provisional ban, which could eventually be upgraded to a four-year suspension.

The reason behind Chelsea's continued lack of a front-of-shirt sponsor has been revealed, with the Blues still playing in plain jerseys as they search for a new backer. The Premier League giants' last long-term sponsorship deal was with telecommunications company Three and that came to an end upon the conclusion of the 2022-23 campaign. They have since bared the names of Infinite Athlete and DAMAC on their shirts, though both partnerships were short-lived.

Chelsea midfielder Dario Essugo has suffered a setback in his bid to return to action following a lengthy spell on the sidelines.

Three years on from his seismic arrival at Chelsea after one of the most dramatic transfer sagas in recent memory, Enzo Fernandez is facing an uncertain future at Stamford Bridge. Supposedly growing disillusioned with life under BlueCo, the midfielder has been linked with some of Europe's biggest clubs - and his current employers are said to be willing to do business.

Liam Rosenior says he has spoken to Cole Palmer about his Chelsea future amid talk of the playmaker being homesick. The 23-year-old grew up in Manchester and reports emerged earlier this week claiming he misses his hometown. However, Blues boss Rosenior insists that the England international is "very happy" at Stamford Bridge and that "every player has problems".

Chelsea have been slapped with a £150,000 fine by the Football Association after a water bottle was thrown towards the Aston Villa dugout in their Stamford Bridge clash. The object was hurled at Villa's coaches during their 2-1 win at the Blues in late December.

Chelsea icon Eden Hazard has officially swapped goals for grapes, embarking on a surprising new career venture as a winemaker. The 35-year-old former winger, who dazzled the Premier League for seven years with his electrifying dribbling, has teamed up with Italian wine tycoon Fabio Cordella to launch his own signature range of reds and whites.
