Chelsea have a big chance of once again playing Champions League football next season after Frank Lampard’s first year in charge of the club.
The Blues have already been very busy even though the summer transfer window has not officially opened yet.
The signings of Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner have delighted Chelsea fans, and it looks like Lampard isn’t quite done there.
With that being said, here are the latest Chelsea-related transfer rumours from today.
Havertz “very interested” in move to Blues
Reported Chelsea target Kai Havertz is “very interested” in a move to the London club, according to Bleacher Report journalist Dean Jones .
However, if the Blues were to make this big-money signing, then it could impact the future of Callum Hudson-Odoi at Stamford Bridge, according to Jones.
Bayer Leverkusen want £90m for the highly-rated attacker, and Chelsea are still big favourites to wrap up the deal.
When Jones spoke to TalkChelsea about the potential signing of the German, Jones said: "He is interested. Very interested, actually.
"He really wants to push himself and Leverkusen are pretty surprised at how focused he is on finding a new club."
Hazard comments about potential return make Blues fans excited
Former Chelsea star Eden Hazard has excited some supporters with his comments from back in December 2019, and has sparked hopes over a potential Werner link-up.
Hazard left the Blues last summer to join European powerhouse Real Madrid, and with Werner and Ziyech arriving, if Hazard was to return one day, it could be a devastating front-line for Lampard to choose from.
Hazard told businessman and Chelsea fan Frank Khalid back in December of last year: “When I finish here, I’ll come back.
"They are doing well, they’re young. Now they can pay for players, they can buy players now. I do my job here and then come back."
Willian reiterates desire to stay at Blues
Willian has admitted he would “sign a new contract at Chelsea tomorrow” if he was to be offered a three-year extension.
The Brazilian attacker is out of contract at the end of the season, and wants a three-year extension to his existing deal, but the Blues are only willing to offer him up to two years.
Speaking to YouTube channel De Sola, via Sports Mole , the 31-year-old said: “There are rumours about several teams that may be interested. For the time being, I have had no concrete proposal.
"But rumours always arise. I’m waiting.
“Chelsea only offered me two years and I asked for three. My goal is the next contract to sign for three years. I haven’t had a deal with Chelsea yet.
"This is what I asked the club for, three years of contract. If you give me that, I’ll get the pen and sign the contract tomorrow.”
