The news around Chelsea at the moment he is focusing on the withdrawal of the proposed Superliga club following a reaction from the fans.
This news overshadowed Tuesday’s scoreless draw against Brighton, which was another indicator that – despite the huge progress in recent months – the team is not yet at the top level.
However, there is an atmosphere of buoyancy at the Blues due to their qualification in the FA Cup final and their place in the Champions League semifinals, while fighting for a top four this season.
Thomas Tuchel will be looking forward to the summer transfer window – his first at the club – and will no doubt be looking for potential signings as he unloads some marginalized players.
Here are the latest rumors about transfers from Stamford Bridge.

Fikayo Tomori joined the loans of Italian giants Milan in January, with the club having the option to make the deal permanent this summer.
A report by the Gazzetta dello Sport in Milan, quoted by Sport Witness, highlights how the Rossoneri intend to keep the young blues graduate and are even willing to sell club captain Alessio Romagnoli to help fund the deal.
The 23-year-old made 14 appearances in the first team for the Milanese giants and concluded an impressive defensive partnership with Simon Kjaer, the club having an option of 28 million euros (24 million pounds) to sign him permanently.
These latest reports suggest that Tomori will make his permanent move to Italy.

Chelsea signed Malang Sarr as a free agent last summer after his release from Nice, but he was immediately loaned to FC Porto.
However, the 22-year-old has been limited to 19 appearances in Portugal – and only five league starts – and is expected to return to Stamford Bridge this summer.
This is according to a report from the Portuguese press A Bola – according to Sport Witness – which says that the defender failed to impress either the center or the defender for Porto.
Indeed, the French Under-21 international has played for Porto’s B team in recent weeks.
Blues eye Iheanacho
Chelsea could look for a new striker this summer, with questions about the future of both Tammy Abraham and Olivier Giroud.
The Blues are now tied to a deal to sign Leicester City striker Kelechi Iheanacho, according to a report in Spanish media Fichajes.
Iheanacho joined Manchester City in 2017 and, despite struggling for minutes for long stretches, excelled in this campaign with 15 goals and five assists in 31 games.
Indeed, 10 of those goals have come in the Nigerian’s last seven appearances, and the report also claims that Arsenal and Manchester United are interested in the player.
