Chelsea FC have reached an agreement with Como for Trevoh Chalobah, with the England international set to undergo a medical with the Serie A side later this week. The deal is worth €30million (£25.7m) plus up to €6m (£5.1m) in add-ons. Chalobah was a mainstay in Chelsea's defence last season, making 47 appearances across all competitions under three different head coaches, but was not considered untouchable ahead of the arrival of Xabi Alonso this summer.

What happened?

Chelsea FC have confirmed the signing of Jordan Henderson on a free transfer after the former Liverpool captain left Brentford. Henderson joins the Blues on a free transfer, bringing his experience and leadership to the team.

Why it matters for Chelsea FC

The signing of Henderson is a significant boost to Chelsea's squad, providing depth and experience in midfield. The 32-year-old has a wealth of experience in the Premier League, having played for Liverpool and Sunderland in the past.

What comes next?

Chelsea FC are expected to continue their transfer activity in the coming weeks, with several other deals reportedly in the works. The Blues are looking to strengthen their squad ahead of the new season, with a number of positions still to be filled.
