The Chelsea FC Newsletter: Thursday 22nd June 2023!
Morning all,
By golly I didn’t think it was possible to get any busier than since we have been after transfer deadline day opened last week, but here we are off the back of THE busiest ever day covering a transfer window, at least in terms of the number of outgoing deals being confirmed all on the same morning! We had Fabrizio Romano ‘here we go’s’ coming in left, right, centre, from behind, from below, and from above!! They were coming from ALL angles as Chelsea continue their big squad clear-out plans.
To get ALL the news on all of that, how it unfolded, and everything else that happened since then, head to yesterday’s live blog here. Massive thank you to Charlie who continued this on whilst I visited my Mum for her Birthday! This also had A LOT of positive sourced news and exclusives from me, so absolutely not to be missed.
With Chelsea selling so many players, we can expect the arrivals to start coming in very soon, and Chelsea have big plans for that. There is real positivity now that Chelsea will be able to sign Moises Caicedo from Brighton, and I had the latest in a sourced article on that here.
And then I have two more sourced articles today based on outgoings. One here on the future of Callum Hudson-Odoi, with Saudi interest coming in. Plenty in here, including one Premier League club also very keen.
The next one is on David Datro Fofana, who will be leaving Chelsea this summer on loan, or even on a permanent deal. Find out more on that one here.
I still had time to run some important polls yesterday, largely based around how we replace Edouard Mendy. But also some midfield and striker questions in there as well. Make sure to take part here.
Right, so annoyingly, today I have a Hospital appointment in the morning (I’m OK), and I have no idea how long I’ll be there with expected delays at any Hospital these days. So I’ll start the live blog first thing, but then I’m not sure when I’ll jump back on, but will be on as soon as possible.
Finally, BIG Podcast announcement. I have my friend Parth (@CFCParee) joining me on the Podcast later today to chat all about the academy, the first team, and the transfer window. Parth also has some exclusive and sourced news to bring everyone, so this will be a must watch/listen for sure. Parth runs The Chelsea Spot and has very good connections and often gets some really good inside info. No Macca as he’s at a tournament with his team.
Right, I’ll fire up the blog, then join you all when I can! - Articles might not be out by lunchtime today either, depends how much I can get done before I go, if anything.
Peace, Si.
Good morning Si, another wonderful day today. Hope we get lots of exciting news today just like yesterday.
Lovely you have Parth joining you in the Pod. Really looking forward to what he has for us today. He tweeted out the Senegalese flag on his Chelsea spot account yesterday so I'm guessing his info has some connections to Jackson done deal😁😁😜
Nonetheless, I'm excited to know all the sourced info both of you have got for us today.Let the day begin 🔥🔥
Morning Simon - Hope all’s well at your end
