Par updateov, vse od Felixa:
Moises Caicedo talks with Brighton are very positive. Chelsea want to reach a verbal agreement, before official bid.
Feeling is a bid will be tabled this week. Chelsea happy with Brighton’s £85m asking price, but talks over structure & instalments are key before a bid.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Understand Matheus França is currently seen as a 1st team player, not a loan player.
França is seen as the fluid AM/RW profile in 1st team squad & will be assessed in pre-season if deal is completed.
Chelsea registered interest in Rayan Cherki during talks on Pulisic.Cherki was already liked, but extremely scouted & impressed at U21 Euros.
Getting both Cherki & França hasn’t been ruled out, with Chelsea working a lot off availability/price, but currently França is the one.
França is seen as above Cherki by many scouts. Chelsea were happy to pay Gabri Veiga’s release clause, but similar to Ugarte PSG have entered the race & offered a base salary that is completely out of Chelsea’s new wage structure, so Chelsea will not try to compete.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Understand Newcastle recently enquired to Chelsea on Conor Gallagher, Trevoh Chalobah & Marc Cucurella.
Interest most strong for Gallagher, but Newcastle indicated they’d be willing to pay £25-30m for Cucurella.
Atletico Madrid enquired again on Cucurella, but nothing concrete.
Chelsea’s asking price for Ian Maatsen is around £25 million. Burnley bid £15m + add-ons to take it to around £20m, but this was rejected.
Maatsen will go into pre-season, with Burnley only club so far with concrete interest & Chelsea like Maatsen either way.
Chelsea will assess Armando Broja in pre-season, but are open to all possibilities & have seen interest.
Crystal Palace & West Ham have permanent interest, while Brentford are interested in a loan for now. West Ham most concrete.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Understand despite being told Colwill is not for sale, Liverpool have spoken to Levi Colwill’s camp again, stating even at a record price they would be interested.
He’s one reason they haven’t signed a CB. Liverpool also enquired to Chelsea directly.
Chelsea reiterated he is not for sale & will offer him a long term contract, but will have to be within new wage structure.
Colwill will talk with Poch after U21 Euros. Southgate told Levi he wants to start him at Euro 2024, but he has to be a regular starter this season.

Gonna save an exclusive striker update for a YouTube video later today.
Elite striker list is down to THREE men.
