News and rumors surrounding Chelsea’s pending transfers, including developments regarding Ivan Toney, a possible purchase of Sporting CP, and the buildup to the Blues’ match against Bournemouth on Sunday.
When Chelsea plays Bournemouth this weekend in the Premier League, Mauricio Pochettino will be hoping to get back to winning ways.
Even though the Blues have had a rocky start to the season due to numerous injuries, Pochettino may soon see a significant improvement.
In terms of transfers, the Blues are anticipated to make a move for a new striker in the upcoming window(s), with Victor Osimhen and Ivan Toney being two names linked.
Malo Gusto and Nicolas Jackson have been talking about how they first arrived at Stamford Bridge in other places.
They have made some significant predictions for the future and have talked about club legends.
Replacement for Enzo Fernandez located.
Billy Gilmour put on another outstanding performance for Brighton against Manchester United at Old Trafford, raising serious doubts about Chelsea’s decision to sell him.
Even though Pervis Estupinan and Solly March weren’t even in the matchday squad, Robert De Zerbi decided to start the game with Gilmour and Evan Ferguson on the bench.
Despite this, the Seagulls were still able to win the game thanks to their outstanding performance.
With Brighton putting on a professional performance in Manchester, Danny Welbeck, Pascal Gross, and Joao Pedro all scored goals.
Despite losing both Alexis Mac Allister and Moises Caicedo in the summer, Hannibal Mejbri prevented De Zerbi’s team from keeping a clean sheet, but they still appear to be a formidable force.
However, had a transfer decision not been made in 2022, the latter could have avoided the entire transfer saga and avoided his £115 million move to the Blues.
Marc Cucurella moved to Stamford Bridge during that summer transfer window, while Levi Colwill and Gilmour made the opposite move.
Both players appeared to be headed for permanent moves, but it was ultimately decided that Colwill would only leave on a loan for the current season.
But Gilmour left for just £9million, and he has since shown on the south coast that Thomas Tuchel made a huge error in that regard.
Ansu Fati should have scored on his club debut after Gilmour, who had just come off the bench against Man United, turned brilliantly in the center circle to get past two midfielders. His midfield movement and exquisite passing created quite a stir on social media, with many fans further criticizing the sale decision and some even suggesting the Blues bring him back.
Jackson’s dream £20.3million chance to expose transfer mistake
In the Premier League matchup between Chelsea and Bournemouth, striker Nicolas Jackson has a great opportunity to disprove a significant transfer decision. The 22-year-old almost left the Spanish club earlier in the year to join another Premier League team.
Ultimately, he decided to stay and signed for Chelsea in the summer from Villareal.
Jackson was a target for Bournemouth, who were looking for a new striker, and they had a transfer deal with Villareal. However, the international Senegal player failed his medical on the south coast, which caused the £20.3million deal to fall through.
Jackson tried to leave again but was unsuccessful, so he came back in early March and then scored eight goals in the final weeks of the La Liga season.
Jackson’s performances caught Chelsea’s attention, and a £29 million deal was ultimately reached to bring Jackson to England.
Mudryk Chelsea message to Pochettino
Mykhailo Mudryk will be hoping for a starting spot in Mauricio Pochettino’s Chelsea squad for the Premier League match against Bournemouth.
With no league starts and only 67 minutes of bench time, the 22-year-old has had a difficult start to the new campaign.
Due to a minor injury, he missed the victory over Luton and the Carabao Cup victory over AFC Wimbledon, but he has since resumed training.
He also participated for Ukraine in their match against England during the international break to qualify for the European Championship.
Mudryk struggled to stand out when facing Kyle Walker, but his supporters have called for him, Noni Madueke, or Cole Palmer to start.
Ben Chilwell has been used in an advanced role in place of that trio because Pochettino has only started two starting XIs with two known attackers each time.
A potential tactical rethink does not currently seem likely given that Pochettino defended his use of Chilwell in his press conference on Friday.
Ben can assist the team in various positions, he said, acknowledging that he is a full-back. Ben Chilwell probably produced more opportunities than any other player in the team’s animation.
Ben probably occupied a position like this for the national team.
But given his frantic pace and quick feet, Mudryk appears to have displayed his best quality to Pochettino during practice.
Significant injury boost for Chelsea.
Carney Chukwuemeka, a star for Chelsea, was spotted on the grass at Cobham and could soon be back in the lineup.
After scoring the Blues’ first league goal, the midfielder suffered an injury in the 3-1 loss to West Ham, and Pochettino will be hoping he recovers quickly.
Chukwuemeka was depicted in full training gear in a Noni Madueke Instagram story, suggesting that he might soon make a comeback.
