Here is a roundup of the top Chelsea news, gossip and transfer speculation from icchelseanews featuring the likes of Marcus Rashford, Jonathan David and Aaron Anselmino

CHELSEA are set to recall Argentine wonderkid Aaron Anselmino from Boca Juniors loan as he will join the Blues’ squad in January.

Anselmino was being touted as a potential superstar after his maiden season as a senior professional at Boca Juniors. His performance in the 2023-24 campaign grabbed the attention of the clubs recruiters, who wasted no time in sealing a transfer for the young defender for just £17 million ($22m) in the summer.

The player, who has committed to move to Stamford Bridge on a seven-year deal, immediately returned to the Argentine club on loan at least until January 2025, and has continued to impress over in his homeland

Per Fabrizio Romano, the Blues have now decided to recall the 19-year-old from his loan spell after just six months. Anselmino is expected to travel to London by the end of this week and join Enzo Maresca’s squad at Cobham.

IcChelseanews View…

Anselmino is a wonderful talent that definitely has a big future in the game, so we have really snapped up a player that they can mould into something special and then potential sell him for alot more that the £17 million that was paid.

Hopefully he will get the game time that he needs to develop into the world class player that he could be. It is a massive move coming to London, hopefully it works out.

JONATHAN DAVID HAS BIG WAGE DEMANDS

CHELSEA target Jonathan David is expected to become a free agent next summer, and is demanding £100,000 a week according to TuttoSport.

Depite the relatively good start to life at Stamford Bridge, Enzo Maresca has alot of work to do in order to get Chelsea back challenging for a Premier League title as the former dominant force of the Premier League are now inconsistent.

Nicolas Jackson has been too inconsistent since his move to Stamford Bridge, Christopher Nkunku has has been in excellent form but is being linked with a move away from the club as he struggles to get many minutes in the Premier League.

That has led to all sorts of speculation and rumours that a potential move for David could happen in the next couple of windows, especially as the striker is out of contract at the end of the season.

David is Starting the new campaign in a similarly potent fashion as he ended it last season, and we have the chance to open talks in January and potential striker a deal with the Canadian star.

IcChelseanews View…

Look, the club need a striker it really is that simple. But David is just another Nicolas Jackson and would not really offer anything different in that Blues attack, which is not what Maresca wants.

He would be a good option if he was totally fee, but with signing on fees, agent fees, appearance fees etc, it could end up cost the club million and millions.

UNITED WANTS SELL RASHFORD

It has again been claimed that Man United would like to get CHELSEA target Marcus Rashford sold this January window in order to help free up some money, so they can add some players to the side.

He really struggled last season under boss Erik Ten Hag and has only managed to score 8 goals in all competitions for United, which is not good enough for a player of his ability and quality when he is on top of his game, and he has not been any better this season.

This season the striker has been even worse and has even been completely dropped from the side under Ruben Amorim, who only wants players at Old Trafford that are actually keen on playing for the club.

United started welcoming bids for the 27-year-old last summer following a drastic loss of form, and are ready to let him leave the club now that the January window is open, and could accept just £40 million for the star, but are struggling to get him sold, according to Sky Sports News’ senior reporter Melissa Reddy:

“Selling Marcus Rashford would help Man Utd financially as it would be banked in the books as pure profit as he’s an academy graduate. He says he wants a fresh challenge and the club are open to letting him leave.

“But there is no market for Rashford because of his salary, valuation, form and all the off the field problems that have been reported.

“In the current landscape where domestic clubs are trying to meet their PSR aims and clubs in Europe can’t match the fees of the Premier League, you can’t see where Rashford would begin this new adventure and where Man Utd get the money they need for him.

‘Some clubs like PSG who have had an interest in Rashford have made it clear there is no active interest in him at the moment.

“I can’t see how Manchester United make this transfer happen in January.”
