The Chelsea FC Newsletter: Thursday 22nd May 2025!

Morning all,

Here we are then another day closer to that big Premier League finale on Sunday afternoon. I still feel pretty excited more than nervous, it’s going to be a madness!

Enzo Maresca spoke ahead of the game yesterday but it was actually his pre-match press conference for the Conference League final against Real Betis next Wednesday, which I found weird being so early. But you can find that, as well as all your latest transfer news and general Chelsea news from the last 24 hours in the live blog from yesterday here. There was some wild and contrasting reporting going on yesterday so it’s best to round it all up in this.

I had FOUR sourced transfer news stories for you yesterday, one of which was an exclusive!

Let’s begin with the exclusive on Chelsea target Jamie Gittens. This is not a very popular target to be honest, so you might be pleased to read this update here. Newcastle are now in for him as well.

The next one is a general update on new strikers. We have new info on Liam Delap, Victor Osimhen, Benjamin Sesko, and Hugo Ekitike here. Some key bits of insider details in this one. I’ll speak a bit more on all this today because there’s some weird reporting on differing profiles on all this, none of it makes much sense.

From one end of the pitch to the other now to finish up - the first one is on another new defender that Chelsea really like and are looking at as an alternative to Dean Huijsen. News on Chelsea’s interest in Cristhian Mosquera here.

And finally, goalkeepers. I’ve been speaking and reporting a lot on goalkeepers this week, and now I have some solid names from sources. There are FOUR goalkeeper names in this one here with updates on Chelsea’s interest in them all. Big stuff in this!

That’s it for now, see you on the next live blog from around 8.30am today.

Peace, Si.
