Chelsea are not actively looking to sell Noni Madueke but that stance has not halted speculation that he could be prised away if a bid is good enough. Partly because soon he is going to have Brazil’s rising star Estevao Willian to contend with.

Essugo is seen as a backup for Caicedo, a big responsibility. Caicedo was the only Chelsea player to start all 38 Premier League games in their 2024-25 season, and the club are wary of relying on him too much with the added burden of their return to the UCL.

There is a strong possibility Trevoh Chalobah will be sold this summer after his winter-window recall from what was intended to be a season-long loan at Crystal Palace.

Chelsea are contemplating purchasing another attacker in time for next season.

Estevao Willian likes to play on the right side, which is Madueke’s preferred position, as well as centrally. Pedro Neto also enjoys operating down the right more than he does the left — so that has to be a concern for Madueke, too. Chelsea are looking to buy another winger for that side of the pitch.

"I'm told that they [Chelsea] still have an eye on the goalkeeper market and Maignan wasn't the only one they were interested in."

"They [Chelsea] are very scared on Penders, of doing anything that requires him to go out online for 3 years on the trot, because I think they're mindful of what happened with Courtois and Chelsea, where he came back to Chelsea and actually felt no attachment to Chelsea."

West Ham are interested in a couple of Chelsea players. Petrovic could be one and potentially Dewsbury-Hall.

"About 3 weeks ago, Petrovic basically said, 'If I'm to come back and play for Chelsea, I want to be guaranteed that I am the first choice. I now consider myself a first-choice goalkeeper.'"

"Chelsea don't feel they can give him [Petrovic] that because they don't feel they're at that stage with him.

Chelsea would want him to come back to fight to be number one, and he wouldn't probably start as number one.

Petrovic, basically, from what I'm told, said, 'Well, I prefer not to go to the Club World Cup. I'd rather look at what I believe my options are to leave.'

So he asked not to go, so they didn't take it on. Chelsea said that if he wanted to go and if he was willing to compete without any guarantees, then he would have taken up one of the goalkeeper slots on the Club World Cup."

They [Chelsea] are looking for a versatile forward, which is why they're interested in Ekitike still.

He can play as a striker, with a striker, in a variety of different sort of striking roles. And João Pedro, they have shown an interest in.

If a club did come in with a big bid for Jackson, that would give them a decision to make, but unless a club comes in for Jackson, I think that they're gearing up for Delap and Jackson being the number nines.

They [Chelsea] are not desperately looking for a centre-back at the moment. But they are more interested in the left side. I think someone like Hato at the moment is more likely.

Gittens will happen. Gittens talks remain. I think there is optimism that will happen.

"I'm told that he's a nice lad. I think Petrovic is a headstrong lad, because I think this time last year when it was made clear to him, you won't start this coming season as number one because Maresca doesn't see you as a style fit for him at this stage.

I think he then also made it clear this time last year that if he wasn't going to be number one, having spent the season at number one, then he would rather look for something elsewhere. So I think he is headstrong. He clearly knows his own value and his own worth."

"The situation is different, whereas in the last two summers, Trevoh Chalobah has definitely been offered to clubs and told to find a new club. That hasn't happened this summer, he's not been put on any lists. He's not being touted around.

A bit like with Petrovic, they are not going to give Chalobah any playing guarantees. Chalobah does definitely want to be confident he's going to play a lot because of the World Cup and because he feels he deserves it."

“Yes, I believe we could still see Maignan sign. Chelsea know Milan may be more tempted to sell the longer the window goes on. He has 12 months remaining on his deal and if he does not extend, then this will be their last opportunity to get any sort of fee for the goalkeeper.”

Chelsea have plenty centre backs on the radar. Hato, Murillo, Branthwaite, Guehi and Tomas Araujo.
