The Chelsea FC Newsletter: Friday 10th July 2026!
Morning all,
Welcome to another weekend and another VERY hot day in Europe!
It’s been strange this week as we had the first day without a World Cup game, meaning it’s coming to an end soon. What a competition it has been, and for me, it’s the BIG one this Saturday night! COME ON ENGLAND!!
Round up all your latest Chelsea news from across the last 24 hours in the same place here. This covers everything you need to know, and ALL your Xabi Alonso media content from yesterday as he took his first training session and had some photo shoots! Many of the players returned yesterday as well, and I’ve got the images of them in this!
I put out a Podcast yesterday too with some words on Alonso at Cobham. But perhaps more importantly for some, I delivered some exclusive transfer news in this here on Alex Scott to Chelsea and much more!! Don’t miss it 👀
Plenty of opinion articles to finish the week for us now. The first one is interactive and has a poll for you all. How many of our core group of up for sale players will we actually move on this summer? You decide here and also see my view.
Jesse Derry’s new contract was announced earlier this week, which was fantastic. And now he is about to have a move to Sporting on loan, which is also fantastic. Get the full story and my words on Derry here.
Geovany Quenda was also announced officially by the club this week. I could have sworn he was already announced ages ago, but clearly not! Find out the plans for Quenda here, as well as his first words as a Blue.
There was some meltdowns this week over the pending sale of Andrey Santos. I understand why, but for me, it wasn’t one that I was having a head loss over, I don’t mind selling Santos at all really. My words here.
See you all on the next Live Blog from around 8.45am today.
Peace, Si.
