  1. Kante looks to be heading to Saudi league. Kai looks to be being shopped with Real Madrid the only current interested party Caicedo will not be sold for a small fee Levi Colwell is being courted by Brighton
  2. Since the article is behind paywall here a summary of the whole article: Ugarte had initially agreed to join Chelsea after they matched his release clause of €60 million and offered an additional €5 million in performance-based bonuses to Sporting. However, PSG made a last-minute attempt to secure the Uruguayan midfielder by doubling the salary they had previously offered him, from €5 million to €10 million per year. This caused Ugarte and his representatives to reconsider their decision and inform Chelsea that they wanted more time to think. Chelsea, unhappy with this change of heart, threatened to withdraw their offer, including informing Sporting of their decision. The final decision ultimately lies with Ugarte, who holds the power to choose the club when more than one team meets his release clause. Despite this setback, Chelsea is not completely out of the picture, and they are waiting for Ugarte's final response. The deal between Ugarte and Chelsea was almost finalized, with a contract of at least six seasons and a net annual salary of €3.5 million. Sporting is also waiting for developments and hopes to maintain good relations with both Chelsea and PSG, as they have already sold Nuno Mendes to PSG and were close to sending Ugarte to Chelsea. Chelsea and PSG have a history of market disputes, including a failed transfer of Ziyech to PSG due to document errors on Chelsea's part. PSG made an early move by triggering Ugarte's release clause and offering him a salary of €5 million per year. Chelsea then joined the race for Ugarte, matching the release clause and offering additional bonuses, but their initial salary offer was lower than PSG's. Ugarte initially preferred Chelsea's project due to his dream of playing in the Premier League, but PSG's higher salary offer changed the situation. It was reported that Chelsea had reached an agreement with Sporting and Ugarte, but PSG's new salary offer (€10 million) caused Chelsea to withdraw from the race.
  3. Let's hope this doesn't lead to a knee jerk offer for Caicedo.
  4. Or not
  5. We actually only have one defensive mf right now on the books. And it's uncertain if Kante will be with the squad next season
  6. Someone's already planning his out to follow Pulisic.
  7. Ugarte to Chelsea apparently.
  8. probably
  9. In Chelsea news Kai rumored to Real Madrid Mount rumored to Manchester United Kovacic rumored to Manchester City RLC rumored to AC Milan Pulisic rumored to Juve Two consistent targets being rumored are Caicedo and Ugarte.
  10. Mount agrees to personal terms with manure
  11. Fabrizio: Romelu Lukaku would like to stay at Inter Milan, and they are optimistic that a deal can get done. There will be no talks until after champions League final.
  12. Granted I bet you are out of highschool?
  13. I started it, sue me.
  14. Figured I'd get this started as quite a bit of movement is already starting to happen. Here is a fan survey of keep/sell/loan to get an idea of the size of our squad currently. As well as a bit of insight around potential signings. As mentioned Poch is in as the new manager. Hoping to see a bit less variation in the squad game to game with a firm identity. It is already mentioned that Auba (shocking) and Joao are on their way out. Mount is being rumored gone, but time will tell. Dave has likely played his last game for Chelsea and certainly with Silva's age, he might be depth or gone as well. RLC is likely to AC Milan. Captain America to Juventus gaining steam. Zakaria will no be extended and is heading back to Juve. The first push from Poch is Manuel Ugarte an Uruguayan defensive midfield with PSG also interested. Nkunku is on his way to the squad. Poch's preferred formation is a 4-2-3-1 although he played more 4-3-3 at PSG. Here is a nice article on his style of play and our roster - https://theathletic.com/4448874/2023/05/01/chelsea-pochettino-players-lukaku/
  15. Wait there was an English league before the Premier League?
