๐จ๐ต Gary Cahill on Xabi Alonsoโs appointment:
โI think itโs a really exciting appointment. For these young players, having the opportunity to learn from and be inspired by someone like him will be a huge positive.โ

๐ฃ Jorrel Hato: "I came to the academy of Ajax and when you go there, itโs all about him. Itโs the Cruyff identity.
At that time I was a winger, so I looked at Robben. Weโre both left footed! I was playing on the left at that time so I wanted to be like him."

Julio Enciso has World-Class footballing ability, if you saw Turkey vs Paraguay, it's so clear.
Got hate for saying he would improve Chelsea, but you will apologize to me soon, I promise.
Just dominated Yildiz and Guler.
โผ๏ธChelsea sources have indicated they have sufficient evidence to report City to the Premier League for making an illegal approach to Maresca, but have no plans to do so and are continuing to negotiate with them.

Gianfranco Zola backs Chelsea to bounce back next season under Alonso:
๐ฃ "We all know it hasnโt been a good season but we all know we will come back strong.
Iโm looking forward to the next season. Itโs going to be challenging but I think we will do well under Xabi."
Gary Cahill on Xabi Alonso's appointment:
๐ฃ "I think it's a very, very exciting appointment. For these young players to be able to look and learn from somebody like him will be a positive thing."

Cole Palmer not with England at the World Cup, but preparing for pre-season with Chelsea.
He really needed this break, and under Xabi Alonso, he needs to remind the world who he is.
Real Madrid are going to sell Nico Paz to a Premier League club per some reports now.
I've always hated links to left foot attackers at Chelsea, but if you're this good, why not?
Let's help fund them for Enzo Fernandez.
๐จ Chelsea are pleased with the overall outcome of Marc Cucurella's ยฃ51.8m exit given, we are told, he let them know he was interested in returning to his homeland for family reasons. Jorrel Hato's development last season was a contributing factor in sanctioning the sale, and Valentin Barco is in line to arrive from Strasbourg.

Ibrahim Rabbaj looking swoll, Mudryk must have gave him some good advice.
Morocco next big talent, don't know if he makes it at Chelsea, we'll sign some random kid.
๐จ Xabi Alonso starts work on July 1. Unofficially, he's involved, yes. He's had a tour of Cobham alongside his assistants, has been in London with his family, has spoken with several players and is being constantly consulted on potential ins and outs.
