@iMiaSanMia@OllieGlanvill One person was linked and responsible for Chelsea signing Gittens, Tosin, Lavia and Delap…it’s sad that there’s no accountability.
Niko Kovač advised Bayern against signing one of his own Dortmund players last year
How? Last summer, after Bayern failed to sign priority target Nico Williams, they turned to alternatives. One of them was Dortmund's Jamie Gittens. The supervisory board, including Uli Hoeneß and Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, was skeptical about the player. A club employee was tasked with contacting Niko Kovač to get an honest opinion from him about Gittens. Kovač is said to have made it more than clear that he considers the Englishman "not professional enough" to succeed at FC Bayern. The club then abandoned the pursuit of Gittens and went all in on Luis Díaz. Gittens ended up joining Chelsea

🚨 Manchester City verbal proposal to Nottingham Forest for Elliot Anderson was worth £106m + add-ons, taking it above £120m. #NFFC want British record fee guaranteed, not after bonuses. No fresh talks with #MCFC over 23yo England midfielder @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/DdanEQcqnz
‼️Boehly has less than one year to run of his chairmanship and it is understood Clearlake intends to take over at the end of May 2027.
Some sources believe next year’s passing of the chairman title could be a catalyst for decisions to be made regarding the future of Chelsea’s ownership.
Others claim it is no more significant than a pre-agreed technicality, but do not dismiss the prospect of change.

He definitely wasn’t a flop. He just happened to be part of the mass clearout the club made in 2023, going full circle with the purchases since then. He’d still start for us now lol
🚨 🇳🇬 Chelsea and Newcastle have both had €25million bids ACCEPTED for highly-rated AIK winger Zadok Yohanna - who will now have a choice between the two clubs. (via @MailSport)
