The Chelsea FC Newsletter: Tuesday 31st March 2026!

Morning all,

Hope you’ve had a good weekend. I had a nice little break over the weekend whilst things are quiet, and I didn’t miss too much and very much enjoyed my Chelsea/football detox.

I did miss a bunch more speculation about the future of some of our star players though, and also Pedro Neto fighting on the pitch!

Let’s begin with rounding up all your latest Chelsea news in general from across the last 24 hours in the same place here. I logged off before the Marc Cucurella stuff but will have plenty of words out on that today…

Then we can check in on that Pedro Neto fight from his game for Portugal over the weekend. We all love to see passion, but there’s a fine line between that and petulance, and we all know how Chelsea have been struggling with that recently. Words here.

Meanwhile, there was a story on Cole Palmer’s future that came out and is basically what I’ve been reporting. Will Palmer push to leave this summer? How realistic is it that he could go? All that and more from our sources here.

Enzo Fernandez is another who could push to go this summer, and he’s been twerking for Real Madrid again over the weekend. The brick carriers are running thin, words and full story here.

Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink says Chelsea need to shoot more, and they absolutely do need to do just that. Words from him and me here.

See you all on the next live blog from around 8.45am on the home page today. I’ve also got a sourced article out on who Chelsea want in to replace Fernandez this summer!! Out soon!

Peace, Si.
