The Chelsea FC Newsletter: Friday 25th July 2025!
Morning all,
Welcome to Friday again! And it’s another weekend closer to Premier League football being back!
The Chelsea board have not taken much of a break and they have gotten busy this week with some transfer deals. Things certainly heated up a bit on the market.
This article here was written first thing on Thursday morning, so I suspect things might have moved or change a lot since then. But it was the latest from our sources on Jorrel Hato and Xavi Simons to Chelsea. You can check it if you missed it as I did drop it in your emails at the time.
On these Dutch ballers, we have player profiles out today on Simons and Hato by our man Luke Rushbrook. You can check that out in full here. I really enjoy these especially if there are some things I don’t know about the players we are looking to bring.
And on Hato, I’ve got a couple of really cool clips and some words on him here. He’s a player I’ve looked into and researched a lot of because I studied him when I did my scouting course; so I feel my words can hold some weight in this one. I’ve always really liked the look of him.
Speaking about the summer window in general now and it can end VERY strong and can be a VERY good window. But I still have that burning goalkeeper feeling. If we end the window by upgrading our goalkeepers and bringing a top new one in, then it can be very close to being a GREAT summer transfer window for us. But it wont be that unless we address the goalkeeper issue, in my opinion, and I’m not meaning to sound spoilt by saying that. It’s just so important and cannot be ignored. Words in full here.

Have a cracking weekend all, I’ll jump on the Substack App if I get any big news to report, otherwise I’ll be back on the site on Sunday. Although I hear Rob has been having a summer clean up of the Substack app chat section and got all OCD on us!? So I’ll have to have a look at that and see what the crack is there!
Peace, Si.
