Chelsea FC 2025-26: Where All Those 8-Year Contracts Start to Make Sense?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Lots of movement to happen still but a step up over last season finishing 4th and heading to the Champions League. One of the youngest squads in the league with plenty of talent. Maybe we get this thread over 4 pages.

Highly touted adds
- Estevao - Anyone who watched the CWC knows he has a ton of talent. More leadership than I expected.
- Paez - Young Colombian talent
- Giddens - LW that was a huge part of Dortmund's success last season
- Delap/Joao Pedro - Very welcomed competition at the 9. If Nicolas wants it, go get it. That being said he appears to be an idiot to me.

Interesting Loanees returning
- Petrovic - One of the highest rated GKs in Ligue 1. Some discussion that he wants to leave based on being left out of the CWC roster
- Renato Vega - Very versatile player, did well at Juventus at CB and can provide cover at LB. Recently linked with Bayern Munich.
- Andrey Santos - Highly touted Brazillian youth. Depth in with Lavia's injury history.

Thankful Exit
- Kepa - Fuck that guy. Oh and fuck Courtios while we are at it.

Expected Exits
- Joao Felix - only room for one Joao
- Raheem Sterling - Hated this signing from day one
- Chilly - I'd expect him to wander off, but wouldn't hate him sticking around for depth and leadership
- Noni - Currently working on his contract with Arsenal as we play the CWC, talented but plenty of games was a black hole that played no defense
- Nkunku - Has been unhappy with his role for awhile since his injury.
