The Chelsea FC Newsletter: Wednesday 28th June 2023!
Morning all,
It’s a super busy week for me as I explained on Monday, so things might not be ‘the norm’ on the site this week. But we have the content coming out thick and fast regardless!
We had Chelsea legend Frank Leboeuf’s column out earlier than his usual Friday session with us this week to get that in, and you can read it exclusively in full here, with many topics covered including Frank’s view on the Mason Mount saga.
Two sourced stories next. The first one here is on three players - Christian Pulisic, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, and Mike Maignan, with Chelsea currently in talks with AC Milan this week over a number of potential deals.
The next one here is a must read and very interesting, because it explains how it is actually domestic deals that is important for Chelsea to get done by the end of this month, and why we are seeing willing deals done with our rivals. It’s also got sourced news on the future of Callum Hudson-Odoi and the developments in that situation.
Gianfranco Zola is a Chelsea legend and easily in the top 5 players I have ever witnessed in a Chelsea shirt. He was simply just magic, and there won’t be many players like him again. Our former owner Roman Abramovich clearly rated him highly as well, because when he took over the club he tried to sign Zola back from Cagliari, and when that was rejected, he tried to buy Cagliari instead!! Get the full story on that here.
Finally for today, the live blog was up and running yesterday as per usual, so it’s the best place to get all your Chelsea news from the last 24 hours rounded up in one place here!
That’s it for now, next live blog will be up and running from around 7am today!
Peace, Si.
