‼️Chalobah is going to be a different story because Chelsea tried to sell the academy graduate last summer. They had to settle for a loan to Crystal Palace before recalling him in January due to Fofana suffering a severe hamstring injury in December. He has played 27 times (for both teams) this season, so that will help Chelsea’s chances of receiving a decent permanent fee. Chalobah, who is 26 in July, will want to continue playing regularly and join a leading club.

Two others expected to be in the outgoing column are Disasi and Veiga.

‼️There are no fears over another homegrown asset in Acheampong. Maresca admitted this month that he ‘loves’ Acheampong and there is no desire for him to go anywhere, even on loan. The 18-year-old, who was officially promoted from the under-21s in December, is seen as someone that can provide cover at right-back and in midfield.

‼️Chelsea signed Anselmino from Boca Juniors for £17million in August. He is 20 next week (April 29) and one for the future. Anselmino spent the rest of last year loaned back to Boca before being given time to adapt to Chelsea’s Cobham training base and living abroad in England, without the pressure of senior football, since January. He will be loaned out next season and there is interest from Champions League and Europa League clubs.

‼️Sarr was bought from Chelsea’s sister club Strasbourg for €14m in January in view of him joining Chelsea this summer. But with Strasbourg just four points off second place in Ligue 1 and on course to qualify for Europe, Chelsea are thinking about him staying on loan for a season so he can develop further.

Why are we planning on keeping Badiashile?

He gets injured a lot as well 😭

🗣 Graeme Bailey: "Having spoken to Bournemouth sources, they reiterated that they see him most likely staying in the Premier League and from what they believe, the favourites for him are Liverpool, not to discount Chelsea or even Arsenal or Newcastle, but Liverpool are pushing hard."

Dortmund boss Niko Kovac on Chukwuemeka:

“Carney will return to Chelsea first. What happens after that is still up in the air. It’s clear that he has qualities and that I like him, that we all like him. But Chelsea are smart enough to structure the process in such a way that they will benefit from it.”

🗣 Enzo Maresca on Gusto: "Malo is injured but it does not look like an important injury. He is running and doing things outside but he won't be available for tomorrow."


@chelseafooty01

🗣 Enzo Maresca: "Hopefully, Marc Guiu can be back in one or two weeks."

🗣 Enzo Maresca on Lavia: "He is back, training with us. With Romeo, we are trying the same thing we are trying with Reece James. We need to use them step by step. With Reece it is working quite well."

Maresca asked if George is pushing for a start against Everton following last week :

“Yeah but for a young player we are excited, we need to manage them, because they can be too excited and then too easily down”

🚨 Maresca says he wants his wingers to each have 10 PL goals at the end of the season. He says Neto is currently doing well but can improve on his 4-5 goals.

Maresca: “We are just at the beginning stage of the club’s vision”

🚨🔵 Enzo Maresca: “Christopher Nkunku is back in the squad. He has been good. He's training well”.

“Last week decision? I’m always trying to do the best for the club”.

Maresca added on Nkunku: "He is training well, but for the Fulham squad, we had to put one attacker out and that would have had to be Tyrique (if not Nkunku)."

"I know Christo cost a lot and Ty is from the academy but I am just trying to make the best decision for the club."

Maresca on fan frustration: “I can understand.”

Maresca also references that Chelsea fans were singing Chelsea were back a few months ago.

Maresca: “Now we are not winning the same amount of games, they are showing they are not happy.”
