Chelsea will finally kick off their 2026/27 Premier League season at Craven Cottage on Monday night after watching the rest of the league unfold over the weekend. The Blues face west London rivals Fulham with Xabi Alonso aiming to start on a positive note.
The Chelsea boss has been extremely busy throughout the summer transfer window, bringing in 11 players and offloading eight. Marco Palestra, Maxence Lacroix, Pep Chavarria and Denner all arrived to beef up the defence.
Meanwhile, Danny Welbeck, Emmanuel Emegha, Dastan Satpaev and Geovany Quenda are all in place to fill in across the attacking line. Morgan Rogers, Valentin Barco and Jordan Henderson make up the rest of the current incomings.
But Alonso isn't done yet in the transfer market, with several transfers touted both in and out of Stamford Bridge. Here, football.london has all the latest transfer news, rumours and announcements coming out of west London.
