๐จ Calum McFarlane is joining Liam Roseniorโs first-team coaching staff rather than going back to managing the U21s.
Rosenior has personally asked McFarlane to become one of his assistants, after being impressed with how he managed the senior squad over the last week as caretaker. They will now begin working together, with Roseniorโs first training session scheduled this afternoon. McFarlaneโs promotion may have taken him by surprise.
Harry Hudson will be promoted to take over Chelseaโs Under 21s side moving forward.

McFarlane last night: โAs Iโm aware, weโre back with the Under-21s. Iโd love to know their score, does anyone know?โ

McFarlane: โOkay thanks.โโ #CFC

Chelsea are set to appoint Dan Hogan as the new Under-18s head coach.
Hogan was appointed as Chelsea Under-16 lead coach in the summer and was most recently a part of the emergency men's first-team coaching staff, as pictured in the middle.
Itโs understood current boss, Hassan Sulaiman, will no longer lead the 18s, and will soon work with the loan group.

๐ฃ๏ธ Liam Rosenior ahead of Charlton Athletic [A] in the FA Cup third round:
๐ค โIโm very excited to work with this group.
โIโve had two wonderful days being welcomed by them and by everyone โ I feel at home already.
โThe players have been magnificent with me and their engagement and how theyโve made my staff and me at home, and now I want to get into the games with them.โ
๐ช ๐๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ญ๐ก๐๐ฎ๐ฅ ๐ฆ๐๐ค๐-๐ฎ๐ฉ ๐จ๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐ฌ๐ช๐ฎ๐๐:
โThey are outstanding and talented players with huge potential and the job for me is to turn that potential into reality.
โHaving potential is one thing; Iโm potentially a very good coach, the players are potentially โ although some of them already are โ world-class players. But we canโt be potentially a world-class team; we need to be a world-class team. Thatโs where Iโm trying to take the club.โ
๐ ๐๐ง ๐๐ก๐๐ฅ๐ฌ๐๐ ๐๐๐ฉ๐ญ๐๐ข๐ง ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ฆ๐๐ฌ:
โIโve analysed the recent games weโve played in and I have to say that Reece, in terms of his impact on the group, in terms of his performances when heโs been on the pitch, heโs growing every day.
โItโs exciting to be working with Reece at this stage of his career because I think he has levels that he can go even beyond what heโs performing now. I think thatโs where a lot of these players are.
โWhat Iโve learned in the last two days, not just about Reece or the leadership group, all the players want success. All of them are honest. Theyโve worked magnificently for me the last two days and I canโt wait to get to know them better.โ

โIโm very fortunate, I think the team is very well coached already and have a very strong identity in the way they want to play, that is clear. I understand that I have similarities in the way that I want the team to play as well, which will help the translation process from one coach to another. But I am not going to make excuses.
โIโm here because Chelsea is expected to win - rightfully so - every game that they play and you have seen with managers in this league and in other leagues in Europe, if you donโt then you are in trouble.
โI need to manage to win in the short-term but also I need to have an eye on the long-term as well so we can be successful over that period.โ

๐๐๐๐๐: Leo Castledine has left Chelsea and completed a permanent transfer to Middlesbrough. ๐ค
Castledine has signed a four-and-a-half-year contract with the Championship side. โ๏ธ
Joining Chelseaโs Academy in March 2020 as an Under-15 from AFC Wimbledon, Castledine was developed and featured the following season for the Under-18s while a schoolboy and captained the side regularly during the 2021/22 campaign.
He stepped up to play Under-21s football during the 2022/23 season and showcased his impressive versatility, playing in defence, midfield and in the frontline as they reached the Premier League 2 play-offs.
After a good start to the campaign that followed, Castledine was named on the first-team substitutes bench on several occasions. His debut came in a League Cup semi-final second leg victory over Middlesbrough, as he was introduced late on in a 6-1 victory for the Blues.
In August 2024, he joined Shrewsbury Town on a season-long loan that was unfortunately cut short by injury the following January. He returned to League One at the start of this season with Huddersfield Town and produced several impressive performances for the Terriers, with 12 goals scored in 27 appearances.
All the best, leo castledine! ๐ช
