Chelsea Rumours Mobile

12 Jul 2025 10:24:45
According to some sources this morning Chelsea would want £100 million for Jackson amid strong interest from AC Milan and a number of premier league clubs. let's see how this pans out and I'm not even going to guess what he might sell for as the market is crazy high.

12 Jul 2025 13:39:38
Greenaway

There is, absolutely no way Italian clubs would pay £30mil for Jackson.

They will probably want him on a 5 year loan, us pay his wages and give them a few million for their begging bowl.

12 Jul 2025 15:16:21
I think the £100 million is a message to any suitors Bill indicating that the club do not want to sell and the player is happy to stay but if you really do want him the fee will be £100 million and in this money mad market who knows?

12 Jul 2025 19:11:34
Agree with your assessment Greenaway, just fed up with Italian clubs coming to us with their begging bowls.

12 Jul 2025 19:20:52
Greenaway, do you actually believe the club are asking £100 million for Jackson. I have no idea whether the club wants him to stay or he wants to stay but I’m sure if we were offered £50 million we would say yes. As I said previously, his game time will be limited next season.

12 Jul 2025 21:04:51
I haven’t got a clue what the CF pecking order will be for next season. At this stage in the relative careers I think Jackson offers more than Delap.

I think the £100m Chelsea price tag comes from the Daily Mail. I think there point is Chelsea don’t want to sell him so have put a prohibitive price on any potential sale. It’s all just people guessing.

16 Jul 2025 10:21:34
I’ve no idea of the order for next season, although at the start I’d expect Pedro and Delap will be ahead. We should also remember that Jackson isn’t only an option through the middle.

06 Jul 2025 18:37:05
I can't say I look at every rumour but I do enjoy them.

So far, I have been surprised that CG hasn't been rumoured to be leaving AM. Lots of English clubs should be interested in him as a very good squad player who gives 100% in every game. Mind you it's probably very nice living in Madrid.

07 Jul 2025 10:39:07
conor started ok Tom but soon got relegated to the bench and although liked by the crowd for his constant running and launching into tackles the coach has preferred more technically gifted players, no real surprise there, and he is seen as available if the right offer comes in.

03 Jul 2025 10:17:48
A rumour today that Arsenal now want Jackson? That lot over there appear obsessed with our players in recent years. We are linked with Garcia from Real Madrid as a replacement.

03 Jul 2025 13:25:03
That would be a really good move Greenaway but I thought he left City as he was homesick.

04 Jul 2025 13:12:37
Sorry Greenaway, I was thinking about Alvarez who went to AM.

05 Jul 2025 08:37:03
We must make the compromise on osihmen. We to compete next season and a proven striker won't be a bad idea.
Understand his wage Is way too much but think we can try beat a little down.

05 Jul 2025 22:07:56
Tusole, I truly believe we tried desperately to sign him last summer and I just can’t see us improving on the terms we offered him then and no agreement could be reached . I think that ship has sailed .

07 Jul 2025 09:25:31
I think Arsenal want Gyokeres (68 oals from last 66 matches) from Sporting and I believe they're ods on to sign him. If so doubt they'd want Jackson as Havertz and Trossard can also obviously play up front as well as oin midfield or on the left respectively.

29 Jun 2025 19:12:53
Looks like j pedro signing done. just no idea what the strategy is here unless jackson is leaving? he's not better thsn jackson or delap . dodgy injury record and discipline issues. another baffling signing at a time where we shouldve been looking to improve the team.

29 Jun 2025 19:49:34
I haven’t seen that confirmed but I see him as a replacement for Nkunku not Jackson. Time will tell.

29 Jun 2025 20:30:39
I guess it all depends on how Jackson sees it Tom.

29 Jun 2025 20:57:07
Im guessing hel replace both felix and NKunku in the squad and will probably rotate with gittens off the left >I think he will surprise any fan whos scratching his head.

29 Jun 2025 21:03:06
Bill, as far as I’m concerned if a player isn’t prepared to fight for his place then he can leave anytime he likes.

As I’ve said in a previous post I will wait and see him play in Chelsea Blue before I make my judgement.

I agree Poch, I think he is a replacement for Nkunku and Felix I think will end up at Benfica on loan.

30 Jun 2025 09:06:07
Totally agree Tom, if a player is frightened of competition then let him go.

There is talk about Pedro's injury record. However, I seem to remember Neto had the same issue and that turned out just fine for us.

03 Jul 2025 19:35:40
He’s just another option and a bit of a different one. Sometimes you’ll want Delap’s strength and ball carrying, others you’ll want Jackson’s ability both to link and to stretch play, then you might want Pedro dropping in and playing the ball through. It’s all about options for different problems.

05 Jul 2025 22:09:27
FD77, good description of the different options that we need.

18 Jun 2025 17:46:28
Apparently, Mudryk has been charged with doping offence by FA.

18 Jun 2025 21:06:58
Not surprised, now the lawyers will be involved to negotiate a period of suspension.

What we need is the lawyer who represented Sinner, the Italian tennis player.

18 Jun 2025 21:13:38
The only surprise is, it’s taken so long to charge the lad.

Hope the young man can clear his name. I guess my surprise was that the drug is perceived to be a performance enhancing drug rather than what some see as a social drug!

19 Jun 2025 08:17:52
Tom

They will try and throw the book at him however of he has a good lawyer, he might just be suspended for 18 months but has already served 6 months of that.

19 Jun 2025 08:51:32
Bill, maybe you are correct.

There are lots of things we don’t know. I assume that CFC perform regular drug tests on all the players. Maybe the club can show that just before he left to go on international duty he had tested negative and that might help the lad.

As things stand it’s the player who takes on responsibility for what goes into his body.

I guess that the press will start speculating about the terms of his CFC contract and maybe a so called “drugs clause. ”

There will be some nouse and lots of guessing but it now seems if all parties are going to make no further comment and that’s a wise move and normal.

{Ed001's Note - clubs almost never drug test their players.}

19 Jun 2025 09:07:17
Tom. the fact that the drug is performance enhancing is worrying as he is a gym junkie.

19 Jun 2025 09:11:06
We move on. Lovely lad and that cameo in his first match against Liverpool had me drooling but so often made the wrong choice, brilliant skillset, pace to burn and an eye for goal but just no football brain. A real shame and I hope he gets the support he needs. With Sancho also departed I'm intrigued as to who will come in? lots being rumoured by the click bait pundits and red top rags but without the late great ED02 we are all clueless as to who it will actually be!

19 Jun 2025 09:27:19
Ed, that’s surprising, maybe a cynic would suggest scared what they may find.

{Ed001's Note - maybe.}

19 Jun 2025 09:37:07
Jimbo, I personally wouldn’t have a clue about his gym activities.

Seems like a nice humble young lad who on occasion looked to be stuck in the headlights. If that makes sense.

19 Jun 2025 09:44:33
Mudryk apparently consumed the drug - he denies of course that this was intentional and he may be telling thr truth even if seems unlikely to many - while on international duty for Ukraine.

Apparently the club have been supporting him - not least it seems with mental health issues - in the six or more months since he was effectively suspended.

If I recall correctly, Paul Pogba in roughlu similar situation had an eighteen month suspension sentence rather than the 4 years maximum. Now if MM has already been suspended for 6 months, perhaps he could effectively only serve a further year if lawyers do a good job.

BUt yes Sinner's layweres did a fantastiuc job for him!

19 Jun 2025 22:19:11
have no idea about Mudryk whether he knew what he put in his system or not. However, we should not be celebrating the fact that people who can afford to pay expensive lawyers can avoid the consequences of their actions. A classic example of that is drink driving. Most normal people put their hands up despite the consequences for their livelihood. However, people with money employ expensive lawyers to try and wriggle out if it. Shakespeare: Henry VI:” The first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers “.

20 Jun 2025 06:45:25
If he feels that the charge is worth challenging then he should employ the “best” people he can afford to put forward his case/ argument.

20 Jun 2025 08:14:21
Totally agree Tom.

20 Jun 2025 15:41:35
Clearly drink drivers should not be able to - but sometimes do of course - get a lesser sentence because of being able to pay for rich lawyers. Drunk drivers climb into a car knowing they've been drinking and knowing that drink drivers like them can kill others in the car, in other cars and/ or themselves.

If Mudryk genuinely believes that he is innocenmt of what he consumed and that part of it was illegal in FIFA ruling - and though many will think his innocence unlikely it is possible and he has to have the right to argiue his case - then it is not wrong that he has good lawyers reprsenting him. What is wrong, and thios goes for so many other crimes, is that the poor may also get represented by seldom if ever get the best.

20 Jun 2025 16:43:08
Of course he has a right to challenge the charge. I can’t think of any athlete who hasn’t. Let’s hope it is resolved quickly. JBS poor people do get adequate legal representation in crime. However, unless you have money you can’t enforce your rights in civil law which is an area that is overlooked. I was part of a Class action for a data breach I got a few hundred quid; that is usually the only way normal people get civil wrongs remedied.

20 Jun 2025 16:44:51
I don’t blame the rich for being rich. I have no envy in my body.

They have the ability to spend there money how they choose . I would like to think if I was sh£t pot loaded I would spend some of my money on the injustices of this world rather than trying to evade justice.

Anyway, it doesn’t matter cause I’m skint.

23 Jun 2025 14:05:29
Make sure the findings are correct and process correct. then look to terminate his contract and avoid wasting any more money on the disaster that has been his chelsea career.

11 Jun 2025 18:53:01
Matt Law who is usually pretty good on all things Chelsea is reporting that Petrovic asked to be left out of the CWC squad to "focus on his future. " Whatever that means.

If it's do with him "wanting" to leave then good luck to the lad.

11 Jun 2025 21:18:10
If that is the case Tom, fair enough.

With Nkunku, not sure why he has been included in the squad.

11 Jun 2025 21:39:58
Bill, Nkunku is our player and was in the Chelsea squad last season. As far as we know he will be in our squad next season.

12 Jun 2025 09:05:29
Extremely doubtful Tom.

12 Jun 2025 11:05:32
Bill, I doubt it as well but until or if we start getting offers we would be stupid not to include in the squad.

On top of that rotation in this competition is going to viral. He may well get a few games.
