Chelsea Q&A live: Thiago Silva arrives, Edouard Mendy transfer latest, early Brighton team news

Hello and welcome to our latest webchat with five days to go until Frank Lampard's side begin their 2020/21 campaign away to Brighton & Hove Albion.

Thiago Silva touched down in London last night while the transfer business is not finished yet with the pursuit of Rennes goalkeeper Edouard Mendy continuing.

The Senegal goalkeeper could end up costing up to £25million and it looks like a move to re-sign Declan Rice from West Ham United could also still happen.

Early team news is beginning to arrive ahead of Monday's visit to the Amex Stadium but there are question marks over the fitness of a couple of new signings.

Our senior reporter Alan Smith is here to dig into those topics and any other questions you might have this afternoon.

Post your question below and he will make sure to reply.
