Chelsea Newsletter - Tuesday 31st May
Covering: SALE COMPLETE! Koulibaly to Chelsea? Sources on Lukaku's future, Barcelona financial struggles implications, Addressing more 'summer plan' reports, Plus all the latest transfer rumours..
Ladies and gents, WE ARE BACK!!
The sale was officially finally FINALLY confirmed yesterday, no more announcements or confirmations expected. It’s all done and dusted, and there was even some first words from our new owners, which you can find in the live blog below. Sanctions are lifted, and we are back in business! What a day!
Moving on to the news….
Every day last week we pretty much had a report out on ‘Chelsea’s summer plans’ published by various outlets. On Monday, it was the turn of The Athletic to release their extensive report on our plans for the summer. A lot of it didn’t sit well with me for many reasons, and I explain it all here.
In the meantime, Chelsea are still keen on Kalidou Koulibaly this summer and there are some small updates on that here. This also contains my reasoning why I believe he should be an absolute priority for us this summer.
There are many more transfer rumours and all the general Chelsea news here as well from yesterday’s live blog.
There’s a situation brewing at Barcelona as well right now that could effect Chelsea in more ways than one, buying and selling. It’s a bizarre one, but you can read all about it here.
Finally, we are forced to talk about Romelu Lukaku again, and I’ve asked fresh questions to a new source on this situation on Monday to find out some more clear and concise news on exactly what is going on. Here is what I have got on that to the best of my knowledge.
Have a good one!
Peace, Si.
