Here is a roundup of the top Chelsea news, gossip and transfer speculation that you guys may have missed…
Chelsea are reportedly among the clubs interested in signing breakout defender Daniel Svensson from Borussia Dortmund this summer.
Reports indicate that Dortmund would be prepared to listen to offers of around €35 million (approximately £30 million–£35 million) — a significant markup on the €6.5 million they paid to secure him permanently. That valuation reflects his rapid adaptation to Bundesliga football and growing reputation as a dynamic, high‑work‑rate defender.
CHELSEA are said to see Svensson as a potential long‑term reinforcement on the left flank, one who could bring both defensive solidity and attacking impetus to the Blues side. With multiple competitions on the horizon, the clubare believed to be seeking further depth and versatility in their squad — attributes Svensson could provide if a deal is agreed.
However, Chelsea are not alone in the chase. Liverpool and Inter Milan have also been linked with interest in Svensson’s services, alongside other European heavyweights reportedly monitoring the situation. This increases the likelihood of a competitive bidding environment should Dortmund opt to sell.
Dortmund’s willingness to entertain offers will be a significant factor as the summer transfer window approaches. While the club view Svensson as a valuable piece of their squad.

It seems that we are being linked with all the best young players in the game, and although Svensson is a very talented lad, he is a player that would struggle to make any sort of impact at CHELSEA.
We are not saying that he would not be good enough for us one day, we are just saying at this stage of his career, he would get lost in the reserves or sitting in the bench, so we are kind of hoping that a move does not happen in the summer.
We need a few signings that can make a few statement signings
NICO WILLIAMS EYES SUMMER MOVE
Nico Williams is reportedly ready to leave Athletic Club this summer, with CHELSEA among several European sides who have been alerted to his potential availability. The claim comes from TeamTalk
Williams, 23, has continued his rapid rise in Spanish football this season, establishing himself as one of La Liga’s most explosive attacking talents. Known for his pace, dribbling ability and productivity from the flanks, he has also become a regular for Spain’s national team, with his performances attracting long-standing interest from clubs across England, Germany and Italy.
According to the report, the player is now open to a new challenge after progressing through Athletic’s academy system and breaking into the first team alongside his older brother, Iñaki.
While Athletic are traditionally reluctant sellers—particularly when it comes to homegrown stars—the club may be powerless if Williams chooses to activate his release clause, believed to be set at a substantial but attainable figure for Europe’s elite.
CHELSEA, who have monitored Williams for over a year, are said to be among the clubs recently briefed on the player’s situation. Liam Rosenior is reportedly eager to add further depth and unpredictability to his front line, especially on the wings.
His blend of athleticism and creativity makes him one of the most coveted young wide players in Europe, and any indication that he is willing to leave Bilbao is likely to trigger significant competition.
Athletic, for their part, remain hopeful of persuading Williams to stay, offering improved terms and emphasising his importance to the club’s long-term project. But with the winger reportedly attracted by the prospect of Champions League football and the chance to compete for major trophies, sources suggest he is increasingly considering a move abroad.
IcChelseanews Says…
We wanted to see Nico Williams signed a few transfer windows ago, but he stayed put. But now is the right time to make a move for the player as he would give that attack something that has been missing this season.
If there really is a chance to sign Williams, we need to make a move.
ENDRICK TIPPED FOR PREM MOVE
Real Madrid-owned Endrick, who is currently enjoying a loan spell at Ligue 1 side Lyon, is being tipped to seal a “very special” transfer to Manchester United, which could come as a massive blow to the likes of Chelsea.
The Brazilian wonderkid has found the going tough at his parent club, amid fierce competition for places, and a permanent move away from Santiago Bernabeu is being speculated on for the summer of 2026.
The likes of CHELSEA have heavily been linked with a move for the Brazilian sensation, as the Blues were massive fans before he made the move to Madrid, and are still massive fans going into the summer transfer window in a few months time.
However – amid all the speculation and rumours, Louis Saha has opened up and tipped Endrick to make a very special move to Old Trafford, Saha has told CasinoHawks when asked if the South American would be a shrewd addition to the ranks at Old Trafford: “Endrick is such an exciting player, very young, but able to show enormous capacity, he is mentally very strong and is very confident.
“He would provide a lot of guarantees to you right away. You know that this is going to have chances because he’s creating his own chances, striking the ball from 20, 25 yards. He is very fast and very strong as well. That’s why I think he signed very early on to Real Madrid, but you can see that it’s a very difficult challenge with Kylian Mbappe joining.
“He’s a star and seeing him at Man Utd would be very special, but let’s see what happens. Many clubs will be interested in him.”
IcChelseanews say…
Look, if there is a real chance for CHELSEA to sign Endrick in the summer window, they will pay that massive asking price to get a deal done and beat off the likes of United, who would not be able to compete with the money that the Blues are likely to offer.
But to be honest, we are not even sure that we need him with all the quality that we already have.
