Here is a roundup of the top Chelsea news and gossip that we think you guys may have missed today –

Journalist Florian Plettenberg has now claimed that CHELSEA are monitoring one manager ahead of the end of the season.

Recent reports circulating within the football fraternity have stirred controversy, suggesting that a faction of players has purportedly petitioned the club’s board to terminate the tenure of manager Mauricio Pochettino. Such claims, if validated, could potentially disrupt the stability and harmony within the club, raising questions about the underlying reasons behind such a drastic demand.

But when it comes to potential replacements, Ruben Amorim has frequently been mentioned as a potential candidate to take the role.

He is currently enjoying a very successful season yet again at Sporting Lisbon, and this has seen him come in for plenty of praise in his relatively short career in the game.

Plettenberg has stated that we are keeping tabs on him, ahead of what looks as if it will be a huge summer when it comes to managers at the top moving on.

He said: “Rúben Amorim, he’s definitely a candidate for FC Liverpool in summer! At FC Barcelona, he is also highly regarded. CHELSEA is monitoring him, should things not progress further with Pochettino in summer.

“Amorim favours a 3421 system with two attacking midfielders who move freely between the lines. Pedro Goncalves and Edwards, are essential for Amorim.

“Similar to Leverkusen and Inter Milan, there are often five players in the forward line as passing options, providing tremendous width in the attacking play (3-2-5). Been told his release clause is said to be €10m in summer.”

GYOKERES FEE SET – 

Sporting won’t sell Victor Gyokeres for less than €100m in the summer window – the likes of CHELSEAhave been informed.

Gyokeres has scored 36 goals in 40 games for Sporting and is one of the form attacking players in European football this term, with many reports in the medcia suggesting that he could be sold in the coming transfer window.

Europe’s elite are queueing up to prise the Sweden international away from Lisbon after his stunning start to life with Sporting, and we are one of the clubs that are desperate to delve into that transfer kitty and add a 30 goals a season forward to that attack

Portuguese football expert Pedro Sepúlveda on Sky Sports News:

“Both Arsenal and CHELSEA are going to look for a striker in the summer. Viktor Gyokeres is the best player in the Portuguese league.

“He has 36 goals in 40 games and 13 assists. These numbers are incredible all around Europe, I’m sure every team would want a 25-year-old striker with these numbers.

“Sporting won’t sell him for less than €100m. I cannot guarantee it will be an English club but I’m sure one club from Europe will pay €100m.”

The transfer window is many months away and there will be alot of rumours – but one thing is for certain – Gyokeres is a player that could add to that attack – he is a real goal-machine right now.

VICTOR OSIMHEN TO CHELSEA?

CHELSEA transfer target Victor Osimhen has told friends where he would like to be in the summer.

It is no secret that we are desperate to add another striker to the attack and it is also no secret that Osimhen is a player that the club have been eyeing up for the last couple of transfer windows.

The Big Nigeria star has already admitted that he is leaving Napoli – the Italians have already confirmed that he will be getting sold in the summer – meaning that we will be able to get a deal done if they meet the £111 million clause.

And if you believe the reports on the Sun Website – it is our club that are leading the race to sign the big man as they are prepared to offer him that big wage to bring him to the Premier League.

Now a report from Calciomercato has claimed that Osimhen has now informed his closest friends what his next destination will be.

According to the Italian outlet, clues point to his future club being Chelsea, which would be a huge boost for the Blues.
