Thought they were false and he was off to Benfica?

Supposedly Alex Telles is available for £25m, which is ludicrous if true. If I was Chelsea I'd hurry up and buy him.

If I was Leicester I'd hurry up and sell us Chilwell with the English premium and then buy him themselves 

[gunnar hendershow]

All the news I've seen around Cavani is that he's agreed to terms with Benfica. But he hasn't signed officially or anything yet.

Supposedly we're in for Onana, might as well drop Vitesse for Ajax as our Dutch feeder team

One player player are seemingly in for is Jonathan David from Gent, but face competition from Man United.

And Arsenal continue the transfer market banter by refusing to pay Partey's £45m release clause, instead offering 25m and Guendouzi.

[TCO]

If he wants to go there and his release clause is £45mil then they're idiots to not just pay it. He's more than worth it and is probably exactly what Arsenal need.

Bayern are reportedly after Max Aarons.

Daniel Farke has apparently said he'd only consider "silly money" offers for the likes of Aarons, Godfrey, Cantwell, and Buendia.

Yes please to both of these.

If we get Havertz over the line and sort those two as well I'd call it a great transfer window. Still reckon we need a centre back but hopefully one of Tomori/Zouma/Ampadu/Guehi suddenly become amazing.

If City sign Ake for anything less than 40m and we don't even try a bid to bring him back I'll be annoyed.

[gunnar hendershow]

Chelsea might be playing into a situation where they hope the solution at centre back is in the club currently and if in the first few months of next season none of them show they're at the level they need to be the club'll go out and buy someone or get someone on loan to fill the position.

It's not the worst strategy especially since my expectation of them next year is a top 4 club that won't catch Liverpool or City but will have a great shot at winning the FA Cup and competing in Europe.

[Baddar]

Tbh, if Chelsea add Havertz to the mix, even without a CB, you'd think they'd spend even more time in games on the front foot. Not picking up a CB might affect them in the long run, but if Havertz wants to join, they should be trying to get that done.

[DavidMarrio]

Chelsea would easily be able to outscore teams if they add Havertz to an already boosted attack and midfield going into next season. 

If they don't add defensively or sort a keeper out then they're going to be in a number of high scoring games but I think they'll be like us on 13/14 under Rodgers...whether they have someone like Suarez to bang in 30+ league goals is a different question. 

Chelsea should take advantage of the Covid-19 affected transfer market if they can given that they had the previous transfer ban, sold Hazard for big money, Morata is going for silly money for someone like Morata and will be getting the likes of Pedro and Willian of the wage bill.

[The Lusophone]

Inter are moving closer to a permanent deal for Alexis Sanchez, according to reports in Italy.

[FLiam]

Reports are saying Chelsea are resigned to Willian signing for us on a free transfer.

Whilst he’d be an excellent addition for a year or so, I still do not like that this is clearly more agent favours style recruitment on our part.

It might be a bit of FM20 and local bias but would Ben Godfrey be a suitable solution? He's young, decently built, and I doubt would cost more than £60m even with the English player tax added onto his value.

[Roster Depth Sicko No. 2]

Norwich's relegation would probably lower his fee a chunk. Could see it being worth a go but you could argue what he offers over Tomori/Guehi.

Funny you mention him!

West Ham are after QPR's £20m-rated Eberechi Eze, according to the Guardian.

Paul Merson thinks Chelsea should sign John Stones. No thanks.

Bayern are apparently letting Thiago leave for £25m, someone in the Prem is gonna be all over that surely?

[Baddar]

Incoming "Bayern reject bid of more than £50m from Man Utd for Thiago".

Lampard just tripped and fell running to grab a phone.

All seriousness though, I think Arsenal could use him. Spurs too perhaps.
