Chelsea in talks to sign Cucarella - as reported elsewhere. Seems Tuchel thinks he could play LCB as well as LWB. Brighton already looking for repalcements #cfc

Marc Cucurella's camp have made it clear to Chelsea that he is open to moving to Stamford Bridge.

The Blues have been interested in Cucurella for some time now – since his time at Getafe. There was a thought that Man City would sign him, but Chelsea have now pounced. #CFC

Kalidou Koulibaly called John Terry before taking the number 26 at Chelsea. Lovely content 💙

RB Leipzig want to re-sign #Chelsea striker Timo #Werner. The Germans are serious and are ready to make an offer to the Blues to buy Werner outright.

Chelsea are interested in signing Southampton right-back Kyle Walker-Peters. Seen as a player who can provide competition for Reece James. A deal for the England international could be possible at around £30-35m.

Aston Villa and Chelsea can confirm that the clubs have reached an agreement for the permanent transfer of Carney Chukwuemeka.

The 18-year-old has been given permission to travel to London to discuss both personal terms and undergo a medical.


Chelsea pulling a Chukwuemeka out of the hat. Great signing. Milan had tracked him this window but put off by the £15m asking price. Even Barcelona enquired 😉

🚨 Gabriel Slonina has completed a permanent transfer to Chelsea on a six years deal.

🚨Talks ongoing with Malang Sarr and AS Monaco over the basis of a loan deal with an option to buy.

Told there is nothing agreed yet, but there is confidence a deal can be done. #CFC

Chelsea are signing Fofana, a defender for the present & future, just like Mount & James

We’ve also signed Slonina (18) & Chukwuemeka (18) whilst also being linked with highly rated Endrick (16) for our future too

Todd Boehly doing things right from the get go👏🏼

#Chelsea are busy in the transfer market; they are optimistic over deals for Marc Cucurella & Frenkie de Jong

Chelsea are negotiating with Barcelona for Frenkie de Jong. The deal is driven by Todd Boehly, who is really keen on signing him. Tuchel has approved and is also keen. 🇳🇱

The priority for Tuchel still remains the defence - such as Cucurella and Fofana. #CFC #FCBLive

🚨“I can’t give you names but #Chelsea are still actively looking at forwards.

Once they sort out the defensive situation which is the priority they will turn they attention onto forwards.

I’ve heard an very interesting name which I can’t share.” #CFC


🚨“The name which I’ve been told is very interesting and he’s a goalscorer”

- Matt Law

Kalidou Koulibaly very impressive in his first #ChelseaFC press conference, especially in urging the same respect for African nations as for European teams. The 31-year-old has picked Gianfranco Zola's brains too on his #CFC move

🚨 This summer, sources have suggested that Todd Boehly has remained intrigued by the prospect of signing the five-time Ballon d'Or winner, fueling Chelsea's continued interest in Cristiano Ronaldo. 🔵 #CFC

🚨Marc Cucurella will be Thomas Tuchel's new left back! #CFC

Chelsea look increasingly likely to keep Armando Broja, who was targeted by West Ham earlier this summer. Everton remain interested in the 20-year-old forward.

Broja could be given an opportunity to establish himself in Tuchel’s squad but Chelsea are still looking for attackers. They hold a tentative interest in Barça’s Memphis Depay and have scouted RB Salzburg’s Benjamin Sesko, who is wanted by United.

Chelsea are on the verge of signing Marc Cucurella from Brighton for £52.5m. Levi Colwill going the other way on a permanent deal is still being discussed. #CFC

Incoming this summer have been brilliant, no complaints about that.

Tuchel and co have targeting the right players, including the ones Chelsea missed on. That's the big positive.

Marc Cucurella joining #Chelsea is huge for the rebuilding of the squad. The now-former Brighton defender can back up Ben Chilwell AND play left centerback.

This allows the Blues to start offloading players like Marcos Alonso, Emerson and Malang Sarr.
