It will be interesting to see how #SFC performs this season, with possibly still having the baggage from the back end of last season hanging over them and lingering around the club.

End of an era. Well played Brodie. #NBA

This will be the first time an NBA team has played against a British basketball club.

Yesterday Portland signed @JeremySochan from the UK to a 1 year deal.

🔵 That’s one of Chelsea’s centre backs out the door. Still expect at least three or four more to be gone before the end of the window.

Alonso wants to keep his list of central defenders to only three or four.

I would expect those to be Lacroix, Colwill, Hato and possibly one of Sarr or Fofana if no one else gets signed. #CFC

🚨🔵⚪️ EXCLUSIVE: Como reach verbal agreement to sign Trevoh Chalobah from Chelsea, here we go!

Welbeck and Mudryk are flying out to be with the Chelsea squad tonight. Others like Mike Penders expected to join in Hong Kong too. Chelsea landed this evening from Sydney.

[Lloyd Canfield @LloydCanfield]

🚨Mudryk on Instagram:

After a long battle, the four-year ban that was imposed on me has been rescinded and I am free to resume my career with immediate effect.

I am grateful that this process has reached a conclusion, that I have been cleared to return to football and that I can now look ahead to my future.

This has been the most difficult period of my career.

As I have always maintained from the outset of this case, I have never knowingly or intentionally taken any banned substance. My commitment to competing fairly and representing my club and country with professionalism and integrity has always been important to me.

I would like to thank my family and friends for their support and belief throughout this period.

I also want to express my deep gratitude to everyone at Chelsea FC, my teammates and the Chelsea supporters who have been with me throughout.

I would also like to thank my legal team and others who assisted for their tireless work on my case.

My focus now is on returning to football, working hard every day, and making a positive contribution on the pitch.

Thank you to everyone who continued to believe in me. I look forward to the next chapter of my career. #CFC
