Pedro Neto Undergoing Medical, Raheem Sterling Attracts Interest, Contact Made with Barcelona
The most recent Chelsea transfer updates and rumors, featuring the latest on Pedro Neto, Raheem Sterling, Trevoh Chalobah, Victor Osimhen, and more.
With the new season just around the corner, Enzo Maresca is gearing up his team for their opening match against Manchester City in just over a week. The Blues will play their final pre-season game on Sunday, facing Inter at Stamford Bridge.
Next week’s clash with City might feature several Chelsea debuts, as the club is close to finalizing its ninth signing of the summer transfer window. They’ve agreed on a deal worth up to £65 million with Wolves for winger Pedro Neto, who is currently undergoing a medical.
In addition to new arrivals, there’s been plenty of speculation about potential departures this summer. Conor Gallagher is nearing a move to Real Madrid, while Raheem Sterling, Trevoh Chalobah, and David Datro Fofana’s futures have also been topics of discussion recently.
It looks like the final weeks before the transfer window closes on Friday, August 30, will be very busy for the club.
Raheem Sterling ‘Inquiry’
The anticipated signing of Pedro Neto will increase competition for Raheem Sterling at Stamford Bridge, which raises the question of whether the former Manchester City player might leave.
Gianluca Di Marzio reports that Juventus is looking to capitalize on the situation and has ‘requested information’ about the winger.
However, a transfer is described as ‘not easy,’ with significant competition for Sterling’s signature. Juventus has also shown interest in Manchester United’s Jadon Sancho.
