Morning all,
Hope you’ve had a good start to the week and are managing to go about your business in this long old heatwave. The mornings are nice though eh? Nice and cool! Rain soon, fear not!
Round up all your latest Chelsea news from across the last 24 hours in the same place here. This covers all you need to know. Xabi Alonso took his first Chelsea press conference yesterday, so in this one you can grab every word he said!
I also put out a bunch of exclusive sourced insider news on a solo Podcast yesterday - this covered the Trevoh Chalobah latest before anywhere else, Maxence Lacroix, Alex Scott, more on Pep Chavarria, and much more! Check it in full here.
I did have one sourced article out yesterday on Chelsea’s pursuit to sign a new left back. What of Pep Chavarria? Is that still on? Are Chelsea now turning to other options and if so, what names? Get all our inside info on that here.
We lost a Chelsea legend over the weekend. Whatever your memories are of Ken Bates and whatever you think about him, he is a man who SAVED Chelsea Football Club, and a man who will always be fondly remembered by the majority of the Chelsea fan base. We have a really nice fan tribute here, as well as words from myself, and journalist Henry Winter.
A couple of other transfer rumours to look into now. One is around Jonathan Rowe to Chelsea. Random one eh? But check out the full story and my verdict on that one here.
And a colleague exclusive to speak about now as well. Chelsea back in contact to sign Adam Wharton? Well, that is the claim. Let’s see about all that and what the story is here.
See you all on the next Live Blog at around 8.45am today!
Peace, Si.
