Enzo Maresca has admitted that he has 'not seen' Chelsea outcast Raheem Sterling since the start of the 2025-26 campaign. Sterling is part of the Blues' 'bomb squad' and will remain so after he failed to secure a move away from Stamford Bridge in the summer transfer window. After spending last season on loan at Arsenal, the winger returned to Chelsea but was deemed surplus to their needs.
Nicolas Jackson’s shock switch from Chelsea to Bayern Munich - which was agreed a year out from signing a new contract at Stamford Bridge - has been branded a "bit harsh" despite the Senegal international striker not being a "natural goal-scorer".

Enzo Maresca admitted that he's in the dark after Chelsea received 74 charges of alleged rule breaches by the FA.

The revelations were made public this week, piling yet more scrutiny onto the club, which has spent the past two years trying to redefine itself under Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital.

Chelsea have agreed to a deal with their sister club Strasbourg over the transfer of in-demand striker Emanuel Emegha in 2026.

Chelsea have been charged with 74 alleged breaches of FA regulations dating back to Roman Abramovich’s ownership, raising questions about what punishment the club could face.

Fulham aimed a tongue-in-cheek dig at Premier League officials as the "cruelly" disallowed Josh King strike against Chelsea won the club's goal of the month award vote for August.
