Bernardo Cueva, who has served as Chelseaβs set-piece specialist for the last two seasons, is changing roles to one more behind the scenes and away from the pitch.
Itβs understood Cueva will be taking on a different position under Chelseaβs owners BlueCo in a more technical and advisory capacity.
Among his responsibilities, he will carry a particular focus on set-piece analysis, opposition preparation, and performance insights.

π¨ OFFICIAL: Chelsea confirms the signing of Melvine Malard on a four-year contract. βοΈ
π£οΈ Melvine Malard: βIβm so happy because I have a plan for my life and my career, and Chelsea were a part of that plan.
Itβs a great club and a big club so Iβm very excited to get started. I have played against Chelsea a lot of times and have always lost so I know the team have good players. And I have known Sonia since I was 14 years old, so itβs great to work with her again.
My objective is to become better every single day and to win trophies. I know Chelsea always have that as an objective and I have that ambition too.
I am also really looking forward to playing at Stamford Bridge on a regular basis. The atmosphere is incredible and the pitch is close to the fans, so you really feel their energy. I love that.β

πππππ: The 2026/27 Chelsea away kit.πβ«οΈπ‘
Black is the base for the change strip for the 2026/27 campaign and for the first time since 2021/22 there is the return of the traditionally popular away kit colour yellow - on this occasion with the Midwest Gold lustre that is also the new home kit trim.
Thoughts? β¬οΈ

Chelsea have added England international John Stones to the list of centre-backs they are considering signing this summer.
Stones is available as a free agent after his contract expired at @Manchester_City.
The 32-year-old impressed for England as they reached the World Cup semi-finals, playing in five of their eight matches.

@Bayer_Leverkusenβs Kerim Alajbegovic is among the attacking options being monitored by Chelsea. Any additions in this area of the pitch depend on sales.
The 18-year-old became the eighth youngest player to score at a World Cup when he found the net in Bosnia and Herzegovinaβs 3-1 victory over Qatar last month. He was coming through the academy at Leverkusen when new Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso was head coach there between 2023 and 2025.

Chelsea have opened talks with Under-21 striker Shumaira Mheuka over a new contract and want to get an agreement in place before sending him out on loan.
Mheukaβs current deal runs out next year, although it does include an option to extend anyway, but Chelsea want to reward him for his progress with a long-term contract as well as making sure he stays at Stamford Bridge.
The 18-year-old has already made nine appearances for the first team. He was named the Premier League 2 Player of the season for 2025-26 after scoring 18 goals in 19 appearances.
It is understood has been finalised yet, but things are progressing well, and there is a confidence that it will be formalised soon.

Chelsea want Β£65 million for Nicolas Jackson, who is one of the players @Aston_Villa have enquired about buying from the London club.
Itβs understood they are not the only Premier League keen on the Senegal international, while teams in Spain also like him.
The 25-year-old spent last season on loan at Bayern Munich. He is still appreciated at Chelsea and is in line to be included in the pre-season tour squad which leaves for Sydney on Friday.
But his chances of regular starts next season have diminished, with Joao Pedro first choice up front and Rogers earmarked to play in an attacking role on the left. Should he want to leave and a club meets the asking price, Chelsea will not stand in his way.
