Chelsea agree striker deal – Agent confirms Chelsea interest in striker – Blues agree £33 million deal for midfielder
Here is a roundup of the top Chelsea news and gossip that we think you guys could have missed today –
Cheslea have reportedly agreed a deal with Aston Villa for Romelu Lukaku, who is also wanted by Napoli.
The CHELSEA man looks set to move away from Stamford Bridge in the current transfer window, having spent last season on loan at AS Roma, as the Blues are seemingly keen to cash in on the big Belgian star.
That has led to alot of transfer speculation in the media which has claimed that a few clubs from Saudi Arabia were very much interested in trying to get a deal done for the big man – and he would be open to the idea of a big money move there.
CalcioNapoli24 recently claimed that Chelsea and Napoli were ‘waiting for white smoke for a medical’, and It is said that the striker had been working on a personalised fitness plan masterminded by Napoli during his summer break after Euro 2024.
However – Il Mattino has now reported that Aston Villa and CHELSEA have agreed terms over a move for Lukaku as the Blues want to offload the Belgian as soon as possible due to his £325,000-per-week wages.
However, the report suggests that the striker is not interested in a move to Birmingham as he waits for Napoli.

It is a shame that he could never fulfil that quality in the Premier League – he has scored goals wherever he has played when not in England.
But this rumour has been dragging on for far too long and Chelsea have been paying his wages for far too long – they need to hurry up and get his massive wage bill off the books that is for sure.
But we are shocked to see that he could end up at Aston Villa that is for sure.
GALLAGHER AGREES MADRID MOVE –
Chelsea have reportedly “given the OK” for Conor Gallagher to move to Atletico Madrid after an agreement was reached.
Gallagher was one of the players that Mauricio Pochettino relied on the most over the course of his stay at Stamford Bridge – and the midfielder rarely let the side down with his hard-working performances.
He has captained the team several times with Reece James being sidelined for large parts of the season – But there has been alot of transfer speculation in the media that he is one player that CHELSEA are very much open to letting leave the club this transfer window – with the likes of Tottenham and West Ham reportedly interested in a deal.
But now it seems that he is heading to La Liga as Spanish outlet AS have stated Atletico will pay just over £33million for the English midfielder, whose contract was set to expire next summer
The Blues had originally been quoting £50m for England midfielder Gallagher, who is yet to discuss personal terms with the Spanish side.
Gallagher has been on Chelsea’s books since he was eight years old and after four loan spells away he broke into the first team two years ago.

Gallagher was very solid for CHELSEA last season and to be honest – the club would be massive fools to let him depart Stamford Bridge over the next few weeks.
We believe that he should stay and be given another season to prove himself at the club – but if the reports are true and he is closing in on a move to Madrid – it will be a great experience for the midfielder.
And in that Spanish League – he could really develop into a top-class star and show Chelsea just what they missed out on if he leaves.
AGENT CONFIRMS CHIESA INTEREST –
The agent of Federico Chiesa has confirmed that Chelsea are interested in a deal for the Juventus star.
Chiesa is a transfer target for Arsenal, Chelsea and Man United – As the winger is “very ambitious” about a move to the Prem and believes top-flight English football will enrich his career.
CHELSEA have suffered immensely in the flanks this term with Raheem Sterling underwhelming. Meanwhile, the North Londoners have heavily depended on Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli in their wings.
The Euro 2020 winner is now seemingly on the market after Thiago Motta took over as Juventus boss and Chelsea are one of the clubs that have been linked with the attacker, along with Manchester United and West Ham
Ramadani also named fellow Serie A club Napoli as a possible destination for Chiesa, who he says could be the subject of a move on transfer deadline day.
‘He is an outgoing player,’ he said. ‘The technical plans have changed and evidently the new coach does not see him among the primary player
‘That said, if he continues to ask for a salary higher than €6m… I know that West Ham, Manchester United and Chelsea were following him.
‘I guarantee you that West Ham would not even give him €6m. Chelsea cannot do crazy things and United would go for other profiles
‘Napoli? Maybe it could be the signing of August 30.’

Look, if Juventus do no longer want Chiesa – then he will get that transfer move away from the Italian giants – but we cant see him at Chelsea – there is no space.
CHELSEA have a number of wingers and attackers in the side and are only buying stars for the future – so even though Maresca would surely love Chiesa to be signed – we cant see this one happening anytime soon.
