The Chelsea FC Newsletter: Friday 6th February 2026!

Morning all,

Welcome to the weekend people!

Chelsea play away at Wolves on Saturday in the 3pm kick off in our next Premier League match. Another big one!

Before then though, let’s round up all your latest general Chelsea news from across the last 24 hours in the same place here.

We can continue our exclusive series of transfer articles that we have been releasing every day this week. We’ve had our revealed transfer target shortlists for centre backs and goalkeepers, and now today, we have full backs here. The next one will be out on Sunday and that will be for midfield targets - we have a big list of names in this and some significant info to reveal on one name too! 👀

I also had a sourced article out yesterday and it’s not a great look for Chelsea, who have created a poor reputation amongst agents, players, and parents, unfortunately. Get the full inside story on that here.

A video article next and it is on a discussion around Chelsea’s recruitment. I don’t often agree with talkSPORT debates, but this one here has some substance to it.

Finally, ending on a big positive, and Joao Pedro is the subject of it. I think he’s been much better recently after a bad dip in form since his fine performance at the Club World Cup. His back to goal display against Arsenal earlier this week was incredible. Get my words and praise here.

Have a good weekend all. I’ll have the Live Discussion Thread going for the Wolves game tomorrow on the Substack App, and I’ll be back on the website Sunday to review it and deliver my continued exclusive transfer news!

COME ON CHELSEA!!

Peace, Si.
