Here is a roundup of the top Chelsea news, gossip and transfer latest from icfootballnews that we think you may have missed featuring the likes of Rodrygo, Jarrod Branthwaite and Victor Osimhen…
Fresh reports in the media this week which is claimed CHELSEA are very interested in Everton defender Jared Branthwaite, as they seek to improve that defence over the course of the transfer window.
Now Chelsea finished the season very well they got champions League football, and they won a European trophy, which doesn’t come around very often. So Enzo Maresca is looking the splash some money improve the squad.
He has already acquired the services of Liam Delap, but fans are just waiting for the final confirmation to go through. But it seems that they are now looking at adding the talented Branthwaite to the side.
The young defender has the potential to become world-class in the coming seasons if he makes the right moves in the next couple of seasons, and reports on the sun have claimed that Chelsea are ready to open talks with Everton over a potential deal.
The reports claimed that Chelsea are ready to pay £70 million in order to get a deal done for defender and the young star is reportedly very interested in making a move to Stamford bridge.
Enzo Maresca wants to carry on improving the squad and certain areas and he knows that he needs to improve that backline, which caused them serious issues last season, and is an area of the side that he needs to improve in order to close the gap on Liverpool, Man city and Arsenal, who will be the favorites for the title again next season.

Branthwaite is a very very good young defender and has all the potential to develop into a top class defender. £70 million is a lot of money for the lad, but he could be worth it in the long-run.
He is just the type of player that CHELSEA like to sign, young and hungry, that they can give a massive contract too. He is ready for that next step up and if he is able to hold down a regular spot in that Blues back-line, he will certainly improve their defence.
It will be an interesting watch to see if the Blues do get a deal done for the lad that is for sure.
CHELSEA WANTS OSIMHEN
There has been some reports in the media which have claimed that CHELSEA want to sign a Victor OsImhen from Napoli, despite agreeing to bring Liam Delap in from Ipswich in a deal worth £30 million.
Now Chelsea will linked with Osman a couple of years ago but it’s high wages and massive transfer fee that naturally wanted meant that he actually went to Galatasaray, where he has performed very impressively for the Turkish giants.
Chelsea have already signed Liam delap from Ipswich for £30 million but that has not stoPped reports that Enzo Maresca would like a new striker to come in and replace Nicholas Jackson, who have been decent struggled for game time for goals sorry on a weekly basis and his performances been very inconsistent for a club like Chelsea, who want to win the champions League and premier League etc.
Osimhen will know that it is very early in the transfer window, but Napoli will be ready to cash in for about 60 million and the sun says Chelsea are very interested in getting a deal done if they feel like they need him.
icfootballnews says…
Osimhen is a world class striker there was no data about that. He is man at scores goals but at the day, he is getting on an age and he’s all about the money.
And with Nicholas Jackson and Liam Delap and a bunch of other young talent at CHELSEA, they don’t really need to go and get a new striker signed up after the arrival of the Delap, who will probably struggle himself to get the game time that he needs because Maresca likes to play a certain way and Liam Delap does not fit that style of play.
Osimhen will probably end up going to Saudi Arabia, they obviously want him he’ll be interested in the high wages that they will probably offer him and to be fair you know what a crazy money he could get over there.
He’s done enough Europe to be happy so a move to Saudi Arabia is probably going to happen simply because Chelsea will not want to pay you massive wages for the age that he is right now.
CHELSEA FREE TO MAKE RODRYGO MOVE?
It has been claimed in the media once again that Real Madrid will be open to letting long-term CHELSEA and Arsenal transfer target Rodrygo leave this summer, if they receive the right offer.
Rodrygo has scored 13 goals and provided 10 assists in 50 appearances this season, but Tension has been building between the Brazilian and Real with the winger unhappy with his role in the team with his relationship with his teammates deteriorating significantly.
The former Santos starlet, who joined Real for €45million in 2018, is ‘angry’ with his diminished role and it has been claimed that he would be open to leaving the Spaniards over the next few months, with reports suggesting that he believes he has played his last game for Real.
Now, according to ASMadrid could be willing to part ways with the Brazilian forward if a substantial offer arrives. The ultimate decision, however, will rest with both Rodrygo and new head coach Xabi Alonso, who is reportedly scheduled to speak directly with the player soon.
However, It was claimed Real will be demanding a fee of €100million (£85m) for the player, and he will also look for wages around the £300k-a-week mark.

Rodrygo has been world class for a few seasons, he is playing at Real and scoring the goals that big time players should be scoring, but his time at the club is probably coming to the end as the Spaniards look to keep on improving the side.
However – Arsenal and CHELSEA do not really need to splash the cash and add another winger to that attack, they already have a number of players that can do the job that Rodrygo does and we are sure that a move to the London clubs will not happen.
If he does leave Madrid, it could be for a move to Saudi Arabia or PSG, that would suit his style of football.
