The Blues are reportedly moving quietly but seriously in the background — with multiple deals cooking as they push for Ajax’s Jorrel Hato, RB Leipzig’s Xavi Simons, and even a possible João Félix reunion.
According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea have agreed personal terms with Hato, and talks with Ajax are currently ongoing over the transfer fee.
As for Xavi Simons? E be like say that one don near finish. Sources claim the deal is already at an advanced stage, with both player and club interested in making it happen.
Omo this is going to hot if everything clicks!
And that’s not all…
Romano also confirmed that Chelsea are still in discussions with Benfica over bringing back João Félix permanently. The player’s agent, Jorge Mendes, allegedly has strong ties with both clubs — making negotiations smoother. Félix himself is said to be open to the move if both sides can settle on a fee.
Meanwhile, over at Camp Nou, it looks like FC Barcelona have locked the transfer gate for the summer. According to club president Joan Laporta, Barça are done with signings and will now focus on developing talent from within.
“We don’t expect new deals at the moment,” Laporta told Mundo Deportivo. “The coach wants to strengthen the first team with players from the reserves.”
So while Chelsea dey run market, Barça don press pause. Who go gain pass? Time go tell.
