Deal for Chilwell is understood to be in total of £65mil, with around £45mil upfront and the remaining as add-ons (@LCFCHQ)

In other news, there are also rumors saying a £85mil deal has been agreed for Havertz, with £60mil up front and all that’s left is how the deal/add-on is structured (@SiPhillipsSport)

Marina masterclass inkambing

Rice/Upamecano/Ampadu/Gimenez? Which would you prefer

Koulibaly seem to be too old to be integrated into our squad, with City already in the frontrunner to get a deal for him

Imo i think after Havertz and Chilwell, the board will have a look into what’s remaining in our budget, sell off some players to keep within the FFP rules, then only look out for targets in the remaining position to be strengthen

If Lewis Dunk has a £40 million asking price, wonder how much will Ben White cost

Rumour of leaked PL fixtures for this 12 September. So we might face Southampton at home

Some transfer updates:

Armando Broja is set for a Vitesse loan move. Ethan Ampadu wants to fight for a spot under Frank Lampard at Chelsea despite loan offers. (Simon Phillips @ SiPhillipsSport)

I think we could try give Ampadu a season under Lampard and see how he performs imo

#Chelsea will make the payment of €85M agreed with #BayerLeverkusen for Kai Havertz (21), when they sell a player for more than €20M

Batshuayi and Bakayoko are both believed to be close to an exit from Stamford Bridge 👀

Hope this isn’t true but somehow it does make sense though. The board could use the extra money to strengthen the defence

Holy shit if 350k per week salary will be most expensive in our team also liao. Even 200k per week also consider expensive dy, hopefully other players not affected by this, and damn havertz really need to perform the second he goes into the pitch

Exactly. PL aggressiveness is on another level compared to other league, and Havertz physicality and adaptability remains a question to date

Later pay chunk amount of fee, afraid will become another Morata but i believe he could adapt but definitely needs some time though

From Fabrizio Romano’s tweet (@FabrizioRomano):

Chelsea and Bayer Leverkusen still in talks for Kai Havertz.
The player is pushing. The two clubs had a contact also on Monday - there’s a distance of €20M between Chelsea first bid and Bayer price tag.
Chelsea are going to use also add ons as part of the deal. 🔵 #CFC #Havertz

Havertz has asked again to leave the club... but it’s up to Chelsea now. “Pay what we ask or we don’t sell any player”- German clubs way. Key days are coming. Havertz still considered “priority target” for Chelsea. 🔵 #CFC

Now can firmly believe he’ll be one of us soon. The only issue now is whether he could adapt

Yup, Leverkusen's pre - season starts on 28th August, that's why they give us the deadline to settle the deal before that so that they can find a replacement, potentially Patrik Schick from AS Roma (as per Simon Phillips @ SiPhillipsSport)

Expect things to wrap up in this remaining days, I sincerely hope for the deal to be finalized this week, dragged too long dy. We need to focus on reinforcing other departments as well

But seriously though.. most expensive German to be signed. That itself could be a pressure for Kai to perform. Can't wait to see all signings to start this 12th September!

Chelsea are interested in PSG's Thiago Silva, according to the Telegraph 👀 (Goal @goal)

How long would be the deal we’d offer if we actually sign him

Izzy Brown will spend the 2020/21 season on loan at Sheffield Wednesday. It will be a second successive year in the Championship for the 23-year-old, who helped Luton Town retain their league status last term with a string of impressive displays and a team-high eight assists

Chelsea Football Club can also confirm the signing of Xavier Mbuyamba from Barcelona. The 18-year-old signed a professional contract at Cobham earlier this week and will join our development squad ahead of preparations for the new campaign. (CFC @ The 5th Stand)

We should try and give Kante another season imo. Last season he couldn’t be at his best due to recurring injuries, and I believe he’d be back performing in Kante-Kovacic/Mount-Havertz in the midfield



Not sure if this is true. But if it is, we could definitely use his experience and leadership to lead the players at the back. Youngsters could learn a thing or two from him as well

Timo Werner, Hakim Ziyech, Kai Havertz, Ben Chilwell, Thiago Silva, Xavier Mbuyamba

Mann this transfer window is damn lit!

Not sure which CB will join us this summer, but either Jose Gimenez or Thiago Silva would definitely be an improvement to our team. Heck I’d take both if given the chance

Ahh i see, probably just them trying to hype the transfer rumor up

Come to think of it, the gaffer also prefers Rice to play at CB. Wonder if we’d actually go for him this window after Havertz and Chilwell deal wrapped up next week

I see, you’re right. The amount of experience + CL player definitely can be a precious asset to us, hopefully Thiago’s resolution will be clear after the CL final tomorrow. Triple summer signing to be announced this coming week, there’s definitely something brewing at the Bridge

Triple signing on the way



They’re actually coming true

Ben Chilwell is currently in London having further tests on an injured heel, though his move to Chelsea is expected to be concluded soon regardless of the severity of the issue.

Probably out for a few weeks

Ampadu back in training for Chelsea
