Finally, Chelsea has reached a deal with ATM on the signing of Joao Felix on a six years contract with a 12 months optional addition. I think this is no bad signing, at this time Chelsea really need a striker with a goal scoring capacity. I am suspecting that there loss to Manchester City yesterday must have fast tracked this deal. But the question now is that, does this cancels Chelsea's further interest on Victor Osimhen of Napoli whose future has been that of contention between Chelsea and PSG.

Another bad signing by Chelsea, Joao Felix proves nothing when he was play for Chelsea and Barcelona, which make his market value drop, Chelsea want to sign him. Signing a player just because the price cheaper than before is wrong. I expect Felix will become nobody in Chelsea and Chelsea will try to sell him since they have too many players.

If Chelsea choose to not sign Osimhen, they should give Lukaku a chance.

I don't know why Chelsea will be faced with the option to sign Osimhen and Felix and they concluded that of Felix over Osimhen.

I know that the movement of Felix last time to the bridge wasn't a success. Although Chelsea were in their lows. Let us be hopeful that things might change now.

With the way Chelsea is buying many players of the same wing, I am suspecting that they are not only improving their squad depth but also very interested business wise to make some money out of these players.

It is quite simple to understand mate, the conditions and signing fee with the salary payment for Osimhen when compared to that of Joao Felix you'll find out that that of Joao is lighter a burden to easily bear, and as businessman Todd Boehly has got to go for Joao Felix believing he can still get same result with him as Osimhen could bring to the club. However, recalling on Joao Felix time on loan in Chelsea he was able to register just 4 goals in all the games he fixture but we're hoping there are a lot of improving changes with his performance now.

What I think Todd Boehly is doing in his buying of numerous players is that he intend to loan some of those players to make profit from them. He's just a man that sees players a business commodities.

I think this is the reason Chelsea are no longer interested in Victor Oshimen because they are looking for other cheaper striker alternatives, Chelsea agreed a deal with Atletico Madrid. But bringing in Joao Felix, is Chelsea's problem in the front line solved? No. Although this player was once loaned to Chelsea, he only played in 20 matches and scored only 4 goals.

Even though they just recruited Pedro Neto and it didn't take long for them to want to recruit Joao Felix, Chelsea spent almost 100 million euros on a player who is not really relied on, isn't this just a waste of money? Chelsea have many players in their squad but are not good at implementing strategies that suit their characteristics.

Yeah we all know how Rumours sometimes translate to been true but you see this particular one it is not materializing to any truth, Vinicius setting his eyes at the Balon D’OR something that he could win this year or maybe next so he wouldn’t want to leave just yet. Aside that Madrid have set a ridiculous amount of $1B as his release clause so that clubs cannot easily match it to take the player away from them.

As long as he is still playing for Real Madrid, his chances of getting the Ballon D'or are very big because he has become an important player for Real Madrid and his contribution to the team is also very big. During his time at Real Madrid he has won everything, only the Ballon D'or is missing. Now he is in the golden age of his career, his age is still young, his future is very bright if he continues to play in high level competitions. The price set by Real Madrid as a way of protecting one of its valuable assets from being taken by other clubs, he has also officially stated that he wants to continue to be at the Santiago Bernabeu. I think this transfer will not happen because Vinicius and Real Madrid still want to continue their cooperation.

Vinicius Jr.'s Ballon d'Or win this season makes it as difficult for him to win the Ballon d'Or next season as Real Madrid joins Mbappe and Mbappe will continue to lead the way for the Ballon d'or. Mbappé is a fantastic player, with pace as well as excellent finishing skills, so it is a foregone conclusion that he will achieve career highs for Real Madrid. It was rumored that Vinicius Jr. could win the Ballon d'Or this season, but it remains to be seen who will win the Ballon d'or in the end. However, the team formed by Real Madrid will be selected from among the best players in the next season.

I don’t see anything wrong in bringing Osimehn to Chelsea at this point, they know they need a clinical striker and only Osimehn is currently in the market that they can get and do the work for them. The transfer window is gradually coming to an end of Chelsea needs this player, they need to be decisive on time and get him on board sooner. They can also get Joao Felix back into the squad with news already speculating that talks have gone far for Chelsea to sign him back on a permanent move this time around. Chelsea will be much better and I see them having a better season if they bring this two players into the squad, I just hope they don’t fade on this and regret it later.

I can say signing Osimhen isn't a bad idea if Chelsea can sell some of their current strikers. Lukaku, Broja, David Datro Fofana, and Deivid Washington are some strikers to be sold first before they sign new strikers. Moreover, they are reported to sign Felix, there will be too many strikers if they don't sell some of them. If I'm a part of Chelsea board, I will be focusing to sell some players first before I plan to buy new players. Chelsea also has too many goalkeepers as well, they have 6 goalkeepers. This is nonsense, why Chelsea wants to waste their money for unused players.

Back to the plan to sign Osimhen, it may resolve the problem of quality striker in Chelsea squad. Chelsea has many strikers now but only 1-2 strikers who have good quality and experience. Unfortunately, Lukaku is no longer expected to play as the main striker of Chelsea. Chelsea only has Nicolas Jackson as the option of the striker. He is still not proven enough to be the mainstay player. That's why Chelsea board is satisfied with the current Chelsea stikers.

I will never understand how and why Chelsea concludes to sign certain players. They have had their first defeat already and then they think Felix is the right guy to fix those problems. Last time he played at Stamford Bridge he scored 4 goals in 16 games. Bring that number up to a whole season and he might score about 10 goals. How is that what they are looking for? And that is not exception. His goal rate has always been at a goal every four games. It was the same when he played for Barcelona and when he played for Atletico Madrid. ATM is probably still angry about their decision back then as they paid a fortune for him when he came from Benfica. It's insane how these clubs go crazy when there is a young talent that plays one good season. They'll immediately pay three figure millions.

Todd Boehly ambition is very big, he wants to make Chelsea a strong team in the EPL in a short time, the defeat from Manchester City is certainly unacceptable to him because the result was never expected, especially since he has spent a lot of money to recruit new players. But he has to look at it realistically, Manchester City is not a team like Fulham or West Ham, it takes a lot of power to beat Manchester City.

If he doesn't realise that he's part of the problem then they're going to be in for a very long horrible ride. It's still crazy to me that this club have not figured out what they're doing wrong when it's staring them in the face the whole time. How do they hope to build a world-class team with average players? Signing all the players in the world won't make them a world-class team. There are better ways he could have handled his transfers. I know the market is inflated but with 80% of the money he has spent, he should have had a world-class team. T
Today they signed Felix on a 5 year contract. They just don't know what they're doing.

Bringing in Osimhen wouldn't be a bad move, as long as he can get the transfer done, Chelsea fans will welcome him with joy. Osimhen's arrival could also increase competition in the front line, this situation will certainly make Chelsea players compete to win a place in the main squad.

At this point, I doubt if Osimhen will choose Chelsea if he has other options in Europe. They won't play Champions League football and would most likely not play it next season too. I think his agent is to find a way to push for the PSG deal now that Ramos is injured, they might be interested.

I think he can help Napoli to achieve something this season, the club realise that and the player is willing to leave the club, especially there are offers from good clubs. And this is the reason why they are raising the price, because they can't refuse clubs because of the player's desire, because they have already discussed everything and Napoli have the last word. Overall I don't see their fault, they want to keep the player and that's their right

With all the indications from the preseason games and the first match of the season against Verona today that they eventually got beaten it is clear that they don’t want to keep him anymore. He has been left out of the squad to look for a new team which wouldn’t be the case if they don’t want to sell. Last season when they had the opportunity to sell him and they didn’t want to sell him they made it publicly clear and now I don’t think they want to keep him with the club statement and the interest in Lukaku, right now they have more problems at hand than just Osimhen. The reason why they haven’t actually reduce the price tag might be because there is still Time and probably when a club comes for negotiations they will agree on a certain amount with them.

Lo Celso is rumoured with Mourinho's team Fenerbahçe recently. Tottenham is prepared to sacrifice him as far as I have heard. This is making things easier for Fenerbahçe. Besides Mourinho and Lo Celso worked together at Tottenham back in the day. This could also be a big help for Fenerbahçe to convince him.

I don't think he will have big costs for them. Mourinho has been expecting a midfielder signing and this could be the one.

This can also help breaking the ice between Mourinho and the chairman Ali Koç as well. Because it is said Mourinho isn't contented with not signing a new midfielder.

This is a move I think will be a good one and wouldn’t be a deal that is hard to get sorted out. Since last season at Tottenham I think Lo Celso himself would have found out that he isn’t on Ange’s plans and he went on loan, now back and without much games at even preseason friendlies I think he should move to Fenerbahçe where is more obvious to get more playing time than this Tottenham

I think they are only making things worse for themselves with this prolonged decision, because in the end, when they are ready to sell for the price previously offered by another team - that price will no longer be there, it will be lower and Napoli will definitely not like that. In that case they will have no choice anymore if they really want to sell the player and make money on it. The main thing is that Osimhen should choose a good club

At this time, I'm finding it extremely difficult to understand the idea behind Chelsea owner's transfer decisions. Chelsea signed Pedro Neto this summer, they have Mykhailo Mudryk, Raheem Sterling, Christopher Nkunku and these are all left wingers so what's the essence of signing Joao Felix who also plays in that position? I don't know why Todd Boehly is just signing players for fun or he's actually signing players that he really need in his team because the last time I checked, Chelsea actually need more of a top 9 striker than a winger. Maybe some of the other players in the club are going to leave this summer because I don't think they will all get playing time in that same Chelsea team.

Really I am also confused about Todd Boehly as well. I was expecting him to sign Victor Osimhen who is also a good striker. He would have given a trial to Osimhen but it is not too late if he needs a striker before the transfer stopped.

Uptill now I can’t see to find out why Chelsea haven’t even signed a striker yet with the number of signings that they Have done so far. Since last season when Chelsea were not scoring everyone was aware that was a lack of a clinical striker that was the problem, this summer I had thought that Chelsea would have gone for a striker first before even going for any player but no they went ahead to sign bunch of youngsters and goalkeepers that aren’t necessary to me.

Osimhen Should have been a high priority for them and even if they don’t want him maybe because of his high wages and valuation there are strikers like Ivan Toney and even Dominick Solanke that would have been better options too and less expensive, they also have Lukaku who is still there player and much much better than Jackson too me so they have many options not to even break the bank

Todd Boehly keep making signing and not all are considered to be relevant depending on the players stats. But for the Atletico Madrid player, he's crucial and good with footing on the ball. Joao Felix to Chelsea, this is one of the good news that will keep me happy with the Chelsea team because they've completely denied me comfort this week. Losing to Manchester City was totally huge embarrassment for the Blues fans including myself.

Perhaps Barcelona sold Gundogan for the money to cover the FPP to enroll Dani Olmo into the first-team squad or they had an internal dispute? Could be both.

If so it's better to go back to Man City where he will get more space because Pep Guardiola already knows that he was an important player just because Gundogan is going to Barcelona he doesn't forbid it.

Arab clubs are always associated with European players, they are eyeing so many top players this is no longer strange, depending on Gundogan's decision whether to go there or not, which is clearly playing in Europe will be better.

The problem is who will buy Gundogan when his contract expires next season because this condition is the same as Mbappe last season at PSG and Madrid is just waiting for his contract to expire.

Gundogan's contract at Barcelona expires at the end of this season, meaning that while there will be plenty of clubs who still want his services then it is certain that they will just have to wait until his contract expires and he leaves on a free transfer just as he did when he left Manchester City for Barcelona before.
In addition if the other option of selling Gundogan can be done but it will not make them a little better for financial problems because if you look at the value of Gundogan at this time he is only worth 15 million when referring to data transfermarkt and even he can go cheaper than that. But im also not sure there will be a club willing to pay 15 million if they end up getting Gundogan for free next season.

It's reported that the club's chairman was infuriated with the performance and result of his players and is now prepared to meet Napoli's demand on Victor Osimhen.

Even if it is not bad signing but Chelsea spends quite big amount of money for unnecessary thing. According to a media, Chelsea signed Felix at £40 million plus bonus. Anyway, it is a very long contract if Chelsea signs Felix for 6 years. Why Chelsea needs to sign him for 6 years? Huh

Chelsea ever signed Felix. They must know well the capability of Felix. If they are looking for a player with a good capacity in scoring goal, I think Felix isn't the best option. Felix isn't a player who could score many goals in every season. I personally assume Felix has no great capability to score goals, but surely Felix is an experienced player.

There is bad news for Barcelona bout their experienced player İlkay Gündoğan. Since İlkay Gündoğan joined Barcelona he helped the team a lot and he was effective for this team during the time when Xavi was working there, even Fick needed this German player.
İlkay Gündoğan played for Manchester City before and was one of the best players of Pep Guardiola to help this coach win the titles. A few hours before the game they had against Valencia they removed his name from the list and it seems İlkay Gündoğan is not happy in this team anymore. Gündoğan even had some offers from the Saudi League but it seems he contacted Manchester City and he said he is ready to come back and play for this team which is not good for Barcelona.

Perhaps Barcelona sold Gundogan for the money to cover the FPP to enroll Dani Olmo into the first-team squad or they had an internal dispute? Could be both.

If so it's better to go back to Man City where he will get more space because Pep Guardiola already knows that he was an important player just because Gundogan is going to Barcelona he doesn't forbid it.

Even if Chelsea buys Osimhen, their performance won't change that much. Look at any new signings they have made recently, most of them have not been able to perform up to their expectations. Mudryk, Caicedo are prime examples. They haven't done much of anything. Cole Palmer, Connor Gallagher, and others have carried this club in the last season. Without them, the results would have been much worse for Chelsea. Osimhen may or may not perform like he has been performing in Napoli. On the other hand, they are about to sell one of their best performers of last season, Connor Gallagher to Atletico Madrid. If that happens then Joao Felix will also be joining Chelsea, who also flopped a little when he was at Chelsea.

But I think by the end of the transfer season, Osimhen will find a new home. I don’t think he is happy in Napoli and he will be pushing Napoli officials to do the deals.

You have made some points regarding why Osimhehen presence likely won't change anything but we still don't have to conclude, asin whether he will perform well or not, in some cases, it isn’t always the fault of the players to not have a expected performance but also the pattern of the coach and the position at which those players are being featured in a game, we all saw what happened during the Frank Lampards era as a coach, most of the players he bought them, didn't perform but Thomas Tuchel used them properly and we saw how greatly the players perforemd.

What has kept Osimhen transfer to still lingering is due to the market value placed on him with clubs like Arsenal, Bayern Munich who were earlier in the race too backing down leaving Chelsea and PSG still keen to acquiring him, although this would have been a done deal for PSG already but at a time they got unserious after evaluating their squad but their interest later rekindle amidst Goncalo Ramos injury.

But like I had said earlier, if PSG will be willing to incur all the requirements in acquiring Osimhen then is most likely he will agree a deal with the French giant since he will be playing in the champions league if he gets to join them. Everything about his fate will eventually unfold as the window transfer duration get winds down, however, I still maintain my stance that Chelsea are the team with a good looking advantage in this race for Osimhen despite not featuring in the UCL.

There is only 1 solution for Osimhen transfer to be realized, namely Napoli must lower its market value according to the club's capabilities. If this solution is not implemented, then Napoli and Osimhen will remain in the same position, standing still and doing nothing. Then about Chelsea, do you think everything is easy when you already have 44 players, is it still not enough? It doesn't matter as long as Todd Boehly money never runs out, but before that, as an illustration or simple comparison for you, today Chelsea will face Manchester City. Here we can judge with Chelsea squad of more than 40 whether Enzo Maresca has found the right composition to stop Manchester City.

The results of this first match will determine how good or bad Chelsea transfer is. Like it or not, it must be accepted considering that Chelsea has more players to choose from. If they fail to conquer Manchester City, it means buying that many players will be considered in vain.

Even if Chelsea buys Osimhen, their performance won't change that much. Look at any new signings they have made recently, most of them have not been able to perform up to their expectations.
