Chelsea set to appoint a new set piece coach

Earlier this week, there was a story in the Daily Mail about oft-maligned (at least in the public eye) Bernardo Cueva changing roles at Chelsea, moving from his set-piece coaching position that he’s held for the last two years (and countless head coaches), to “one more behind the scenes and away from the pitch”. The […]

Chelsea confirm initial traveling squad for preseason tour

This summer has absolutely flown by thanks to the World Cup, and we’re now less than month away from the start of the new Premier League season. I know! That means it’s also time for the team’s preseason preparations to start truly ramping up, and in modern times, that means it’s time for the preseason […]

Como 1907 make ‘improved bid’ for Trevoh Chalobah — report

As Chelsea look set to complete the signing of center back Maxence Lacroix, the exit of Trevoh Chalobah looks to be getting closer to reality as well. Serie A side Como 1907 have made yet another bid (their second? third?) for the 27-year-old, and this one might meet our requirements. According to Fabrizio Romano’s “exclusive”, […]

Chelsea, Crystal Palace ‘finalising’ £52m Maxence Lacroix transfer — report

It looks like Maxence Lacroix will be a Chelsea player here shortly, with the Blues “finalizing” the deal with Crystal Palace today. That’s based on some slightly non-standard reporting from The Athletic, focusing on a non-finalized deal and a scheduled medical, but hopefully they’re not jumping the gun. Chelsea have been talking with Palace about […]

Chelsea ‘favorites’ to sign Kerim Alajbegović from Bayer Leverkusen — reports

If you followed the World Cup over the past month or so, you will have likely heard of young Kerim Alajbegović. The 18-year-old winger caught the eye in an otherwise unremarkable Bosnia & Herzegovina side, especially in their 3-1 win against Qatar, in which he was named the Superior Player of the Match. Bosnia’s World […]

Official: Chelsea sign Harrison Bettoni from Wigan Athletic

Chelsea have signed Harrison Bettoni from Wigan Athletic, with the 18-year-old attacking midfielder agreeing a four-year deal good through 2030. He’s expected to join the U21 team. Bettoni, who first joined Wigan at the U13 level, made 27 appearances for their first team last season, including 21 in League One as they finished in the […]

Official: Aston Villa sign Alejandro Garnacho on loan from Chelsea

Alejandro Garnacho’s move to Aston Villa was made official this morning, with the 22-year-old winger joining Villa for at least the season, and probably for well beyond. There’s a “conditional obligation” for Villa to make the move permanent should “certain criteria be met”. According to earlier reports, those criteria are not expected to be difficult […]

Chelsea, FC Dallas agree future transfer of Benji Flowers — report

Chelsea have agreed the future transfer of teenage talent Benji Flowers, who’s apparently a very highly rated young player currently in the academy system of FC Dallas in the USA. Flowers is only 15, and having just signed his first professional contract, so he will be joining the Blues only in about three years, in […]

Aston Villa, Chelsea agree Alejandro Garnacho loan with option — reports

According to multiple reports, Aston Villa and Chelsea have agreed yet another deal today, this time for Blues disappointment Alejandro Garnacho. So as Morgan Rogers arrives from Villa, Garnacho heads the other way — technically not actually related, but you know… The Garnacho deal is just a loan but with a conditional buy obligation, which […]

‘Recent’ Chelsea bid for Alex Scott was rejected by AFC Bournemouth — reports

AFC Bournemouth midfielder Alex Scott has only two years left on his contract, and as such, he’s been subject to a fair bit of speculation this summer about his future. A new contract doesn’t seem to be in the offing (he has rejected at least one offer, per The Athletic), and the Cherries thus would […]

Official: Chelsea sign Morgan Rogers from Aston Villa

Morgan Rogers has been officially announced as a Chelsea player tonight, completing his club record-breaking £117m move from Aston Villa. The 23-year-old has signed a six-year contract, good through 2032, with a club option for an additional year. Rogers becomes Chelsea’s most expensive incoming transfer of all time, breaking the record set with Enzo Fernández’s […]

Aston Villa submit Alejandro Garnacho bid to Chelsea — reports

Chelsea’s Alejandro Garnacho experiment has returned, shall we say, disappointing results; so much so that the 22-year-old winger has been put on the transfer block just twelve months after arriving from Manchester United looking to rebuild his career. He’s not even been invited back to preseason training under Xabi Alonso (but don’t call it a […]

Chelsea unveil 2026-27 away kit by Nike

Chelsea’s away shirt for the upcoming season will be a fairly snazzy-looking black number, with just enough design features and subtle patterning to make it interesting — unlike, say, last year’s third shirt, which was just a plain black tee at the end of the day. While the classic color for a Chelsea away shirt, […]

Morgan Rogers passes Chelsea medical, signs 6-year contract — reports

Morgan Rogers was scheduled for his Chelsea medical on Monday, and according to reports, he has now passed those checks and has also put pen to paper on a six-year contract (with a club-option for an additional year). So the official announcement shouldn’t be long now — though Rogers himself will surely be going on […]

Enzo Fernández sees red as Spain beat Argentina to win the 2026 World Cup

Well, it was no Zidane headbutt, but unfortunately for ol’e Enzo Fernández, his 2026 World Cup will be remembered for the tackle that sent Pau Cubarsí flipping in the air, and Enzo himself down the tunnel for an early shower in the final. It was a well deserved second yellow card, unlike his first, which […]

2026 World Cup, final: Spain vs. Argentina

And then, there were two. And there was one. Two teams. One game to decide it all. Spain, Champions of Europe, FIFA No.2.Argentina, Champions of South America (and defending World Cup champions), FIFA No.1. Now to decide the Champion of Champions, as they like to do on Taskmaster. Two teams of vastly contrasting styles. Spain […]
