Jamie Gittens remains a priority transfer target for Chelsea, despite Bayern Munich now entering the race for the Borussia Dortmund winger. The Blues have already settled on personal terms with the 20-year-old on a seven-year contract but an agreement is not currently in place between the clubs over a fee.

Enzo Maresca has made it his mission to orchestrate a rebuild of his frontline ahead of next season. Chelsea have already welcomed Liam Delap to their ranks from Ipswich in a deal worth £30million, and other attacking reinforcements are being eyed.

Chelsea have set a steep asking price for Nicolas Jackson after a Premier League club entered the race to secure his signature. Jackson enjoyed a relatively promising first season at Stamford Bridge following a £32m move from Villarreal in 2023, scoring 17 goals in all competitions.
