Chelsea news and transfers LIVE: Aubameyang £22m deal, Dean admission, 'private' Fofana talks

 

With just over two weeks until the summer transfer window slams shut, the Blues and, more specifically, Todd Boehly are set to be very busy on the incomings and outgoings. With regard to signings, progress is expected to be made on all fronts, with Wesley Fofana, Frenkie de Jong and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang all still heavily linked with moves to Stamford Bridge.

And, with regard to potential exits, Marcos Alonso continues to be linked with an exit. His move to Barcelona is reportedly close to completion as the Spanish giant's solve their financial saga with La Liga.

Fellow left-back Emerson Palmieri looked destined to pen a deal with West Ham, though that has fallen through in the last 24 hours or so. Meanwhile, Hakim Ziyech is also pushing for a late exit, with Manchester United swooping in as AC Milan's interest cools.

Speaking of the Red Devils, Chelsea face fresh competition from United for Aubameyang and and Casemiro. Keep your eyes peeled...
