Chelsea will now beat Barcelona in to £25m deal in the coming days

Reports from Spain claim that Chelsea are now set to beat Barcelona following the signing of Gabriel Moscardo.

According to Sport, a deal worth just over £25m will soon be signed for him to join the Blues in the coming days.

Moscardo is a 17-year-old central midfielder who has already put some big teams on notice after some of his midfield appearances for Corinthians.

Chelsea’s interest in signing the youngster became evident just days before the end of the summer transfer window.

The desire to bring him in stems from Todd Boehly’s expressed desire to sign some of the best young players in the world before they reach their true potential.

Chelsea want to beat Barcelona against Moscardo

Whether their main objective is to perform at Stamford Bridge or sell it for a profit, there is no denying that they have fully executed their strategy.

Major acquisitions to date include Andrey Santos, Cesare Casadei and Deivid Washington.
The latter was on the bench in the last Premier League game against Nottingham Forest.

However, the front two are now enjoying good loan spells and both will have the chance to once again prove they are good enough after solid pre-season preparation.

It looks like another midfielder could join them in Moscardo.

This despite Barcelona being particularly obsessed with signing the player, determining that he could have been the long-term heir to the recently deceased Sergio Busquets.

What Nottingham Forest fans sang to Nicolas Jackson after his Chelsea absence on Saturday

Nottingham Forest fans have reportedly gone mad after Nicolas Jackson’s big defeat to Chelsea on Saturday night.

According to The Athletic, away fans chanted “What a waste of money” as they headed to their famous victory at Stamford Bridge.

A difficult afternoon for Jackson ended with just seven minutes remaining when he was presented with the best chance of the game to get Chelsea into trouble again.

When Raheem Sterling cleared the ball from right field, he hit a high shot from inside the six-yard box.

Those few seconds perfectly summed up a nightmarish afternoon in west London.
There wasn’t much praise for the home players.

Paul Merson has been impressed by Enzo Fernandez, one of Chelsea’s most expensive signings.

However, it is difficult to look beyond the fees paid to some first-team players who have yet to see results.

Mauricio Pochettino is now more than aware of just how big a job he has in trying to get Chelsea back into European football next season.

It could be the result of a change in lineup, something fans have been actively pushing for since the start of the Premier League season.
During the pre-season, the coach used an exciting 4-2-3-1 formation which showcased the team’s strengths.

However, three centre-backs have started competitive matches and current captain Ben Chilwell had a much more attacking position.

Reece James now responds inaudibly to what Chelsea did just before deadline.

Reece James responded to the news that Callum Hudson-Odoi, a recent academy graduate, had left Chelsea on social media.

One of the first team’s longest-tenured players was transferred to Premier League team Nottingham Forest, and he left a single sad emoji comment on the former player’s Instagram.

After a long summer of rumors that he would be moving on, Hudson-Odoi’s departure from the club was finally confirmed yesterday.

Last season, they tried one last loan to the Bundesliga in an effort for him to regain the form that helped him break into the team in the first place.

However, under Xabi Alonso, things did not go well, and he actually left Bayer Leverkusen before his loan was supposed to end.

When Hudson-Odoi sold, James was devastated.

Under Mauricio Pochettino, a path back to the first team appeared to be very difficult to see.
He wasn’t a part of the team that traveled to the US for the preseason tour.

Many Premier League teams were rumored to be interested in signing the player, but Forest sealed the deal for a pittance.

James expressed his regret over Hudson-Odoi’s departure on his former teammate’s Instagram story.
James and Hudson-Odoi were friends for many years as they progressed through the academy.

The attacker might not have to wait long, though, as Chelsea is scheduled to play Forest in the league today.

Cole Palmer might make his debut for his new team during this game as Chelsea looks to extend its winning streak at home in the Premier League.
