I know it's only October 2022 currently, but apparently some movement already from the American owned Chelsea Blues. Apparently Nkunku agreement should be completed before the World Cup starts. Rumors that he has already had a "secret" physical.

I don't know but this club is becoming a beating to follow. 

I liked it when there was a ruthless Russian oligarch making the calls that dreaded wasting money.

We actually only have one defensive mf right now on the books. And it's uncertain if Kante will be with the squad next season

🚨 Manuel Ugarte to PSG, here we go! Understand the player is ALREADY in Paris set for medical

Since the article is behind paywall here a summary of the whole article:

Ugarte had initially agreed to join Chelsea after they matched his release clause of €60 million and offered an additional €5 million in performance-based bonuses to Sporting.

However, PSG made a last-minute attempt to secure the Uruguayan midfielder by doubling the salary they had previously offered him, from €5 million to €10 million per year.

This caused Ugarte and his representatives to reconsider their decision and inform Chelsea that they wanted more time to think.

Chelsea, unhappy with this change of heart, threatened to withdraw their offer, including informing Sporting of their decision.

The final decision ultimately lies with Ugarte, who holds the power to choose the club when more than one team meets his release clause.

Despite this setback, Chelsea is not completely out of the picture, and they are waiting for Ugarte's final response.

The deal between Ugarte and Chelsea was almost finalized, with a contract of at least six seasons and a net annual salary of €3.5 million.

Sporting is also waiting for developments and hopes to maintain good relations with both Chelsea and PSG, as they have already sold Nuno Mendes to PSG and were close to sending Ugarte to Chelsea.

Chelsea and PSG have a history of market disputes, including a failed transfer of Ziyech to PSG due to document errors on Chelsea's part.

PSG made an early move by triggering Ugarte's release clause and offering him a salary of €5 million per year.

Chelsea then joined the race for Ugarte, matching the release clause and offering additional bonuses, but their initial salary offer was lower than PSG's.

Ugarte initially preferred Chelsea's project due to his dream of playing in the Premier League, but PSG's higher salary offer changed the situation.

It was reported that Chelsea had reached an agreement with Sporting and Ugarte, but PSG's new salary offer (€10 million) caused Chelsea to withdraw from the race.

Chelsea would be insane to sell Colwill. Sky is the limit with him.

At the end of the day being in the black is more important than perennially embarassing yourselves for an entire decade.

I'm sure they'll invest that money the right way and ensure they have a squad that comes in 2nd to Bayern for the next decade.

The Saudis going down the Man City sponsorship model.

What a joke.  I mean, given that City have gotten and are getting away with it, why would the Saudi's not use the same model?

As long as the blood money comes from the Middle East and not Russia then it's fine.

The FA and UEFA are like 15 years behind the times in regulating club finances. 
 

So Saudi Arabia invest billions into Clearlake Capital, the majority owner of Chelsea.Then Chelsea spend £650million on transfers, putting them in the red with FFP.Then Chelsea sell all of their deadwood to Saudi Arabia at extortionate prices to avoid FFP.And this is fine?

now that's a good signing. if he fails to shine at chelsea then that place is either toxic and/or cursed.

We got rid of a great owner and director for a bunch of dipshits.

newcastle is really impressing me with their moves. this would be a great signing:

🚨 Newcastle close to agreement with AC Milan to sign Italy international Sandro Tonali for fee in region of €70m. Subject to final negotiations for 23yo, #NUFC would be landing Eddie Howe’s top midfield target. W/ @JamesHorncastle @TheAthleticFC #ACMilan https://t.co/Mrk197s7if

Was just coming to post this. Howe is putting the pieces together. This should free Bruno to play forward more or anchor the midfield in European games 
 

Separately I think Newcastle is having to pay a Saudi premium, but once they qualified for the Champions League they can spend more this window and not worry too much about being on the wrong side of FFP rules.
