Chelsea Could Sell Eight Stars As Squad Ovehaul Continues

wontumionlineSports
Chelsea could sell as many as eight players in the summer as they look to continue to overhaul Graham Potter's squad.

The report states that owners Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital…

Chelsea Transfer News: Blues Bid £105.6m For Enzo Fernandez

wontumionlineSports, , ,
Chelsea have bid 120m euros (£105.6m) for Benfica’s Argentina midfielder Enzo Fernandez in a move that would make him the British transfer record signing.

Fernandez was named young player of the tournament during Argentina’s World Cup triumph in Qatar. Benfica have previously accused Chelsea of trying to unsettle the midfielder, with the Portuguese side’s manager Roger Schmidt declaring their pursuit “closed”. However, it is not…

Joao Felix: Chelsea Close To Signing Atletico Madrid Forward On Loan
