Ben Chilwell is still ‘more than happy’ to play for Chelsea despite being banished from the first-team by Enzo Maresca. The left-back was one of over a dozen players, known as the ‘bomb-squad’, exiled by the new manager over the summer and told they had no future at the club. But while the likes of Raheem Sterling, Conor Gallagher and Romelu Lukaku were able to secure a transfer away, Chilwell is still at Stamford Bridge. There was never any serious interest in the England international thanks to his high wages, said to be £ 200,000 a week, and his injury history. #footballfanarena #ffa #chelsea #enzomaresca #romelulukaku #transferwindow #benchilwell #football

Conor Gallagher’s shocking £34M Chelsea exit ignites a football frenzy! Frozen out and cast aside, the England star has made a jaw-dropping leap to Atletico Madrid.

Diego Simeone has praised Joao Felix’s ‘commitment’ and says the attacking midfielder could feature in Atletico Madrid’s clash with Villarreal, despite rumours he is set to join Chelsea. Felix fell some way short of expectations in an underwhelming six-month spell at Stamford Bridge during the 2022/23 season, but the latest reports indicate Chelsea have agreed personal terms with the 24-year-old. For much of the summer, the Blues have been locked in discussions with Atleti over proposed transfer deals for Conor Gallagher and Samu Omorodion, neither of which have materialised. But Chelsea’s pursuit of Felix appears to be heading in the right direction, with their latest bid of £39.2million plus £4.2m in bonuses believed to be close to Atleti’s valuation. #footballfanarena #ffa #chelsea #atleticomadrid #football

Joao Felix could make a shock return to Chelsea after their deal to sign Samu Omorodion from Atletico Madrid collapsed. Omorodion has looked destined to move to Stamford Bridge for weeks now after the two clubs agreed to a £ 34.5 million transfer. Additionally, Conor Gallagher would swap West London for Madrid for a similar fee, despite many fans wanting the England international to stay at his boyhood club. But all has threatened to unravel, as it was reported late on Sunday night that the deal for Omorodion was now off, with The Athletic citing issues regarding the young striker’s contract. #footballfanarena #ffa #madrid #omorodion #england #chelsea #football

The Blues have accepted Atletico's offer of €40 million (£34m) for the England international, who already had a verbal agreement with the Spanish club. Gallagher will now travel to Madrid on Monday to formally put pen to paper on Atletico's contract, valid until 2029. #footballfanarena #ffa #chelsea #gallagher #England #football #transferwindow

Former Atletico Madrid star Kieran Trippier has urged Chelsea midfielder Conor Gallagher to consider a move to Spain this summer, according to reports. Gallagher wore the captain’s armband for most of Chelsea’s 2023-24 season in the absence of Reece James and was a key figure in midfield under Mauricio Pochettino. But the 24-year-old has just one year left on his contract at Stamford Bridge and could leave the Blues this summer. Tottenham are interested in bringing Gallagher across the capital to north London but Atletico are also interested in signing him before the start of the new campaign. #footballfanarena #FFA #Chelsea #tottenham #madrid

Chelsea have been warned a player they are planning to sell this summer will become ‘one of the best strikers in Europe’. While Todd Boehly has already shown he is intent on bolstering the Stamford Bridge squad during this summer’s transfer window – bringing in the likes of Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, Tosin Adarabioyo and Omari Kellyman – he is also working on a number of outgoings. Chelsea have sold Ian Maatsen, Lewis Hall, Omari Hutchinson and Hakim Ziyech so far this summer, while they are open to offers for Romelu Lukaku, Kepa Arrizabalaga, Conor Gallagher and Trevoh Chalobah. The Blues are also hoping to offload Armando Broja but the President of the Albanian Football Association believes this would be a mistake, backing him to develop into one of the top strikers in Europe over the next few seasons. #footballfanarena #ffa #chelsea

Gary Lineker has questioned Gareth Southgate’s explanation for introducing Conor Gallagher in place of Trent Alexander-Arnold in the second half of England’s nervy 1-0 win over Serbia. #FootballFanArena #GaryLineker #GarethSouthgate #England #Euro2024

Enzo Maresca wants Chelsea to sign one of his former Leicester City stars as he prepares for the new season and the likely departure of Conor Gallagher. Maresca officials start at Stamford Bridge on July 1 but have already held talks with the Chelsea owners about possible incomings and outgoings during the summer transfer window. #FootballFanArena #Chelsea #EnzoMaresca
