Chelsea news and transfers LIVE: Reece James injury, Mason Mount update, Thomas Tuchel plan
Chelsea return to Premier League action next weekend following the international break. England are in action against Ukraine tonight, but Reece James, Mason Mount and Raheem Sterling will not be involved.
James has returned to Cobham to undergo an assessment regarding an ongoing injury problem after featuring late on in the Three Lions’ 2-1 win against Italy on Thursday. Mount and Sterling were both omitted from Gareth Southgate’s squad as they recover from their own injury problems.
Todd Boehly could be set to reignite his interest in Southampton star Romeo Lavia this summer after missing out on a £50million deal to sign the 19-year-old ahead of the 2022/23 campaign. Elsewhere, former Chelsea boss Thomas Tuchel has confirmed his plan to raid the Blues for a key member of staff to join him at Bayern Munich.
With that said, keep the blog on lock as we bring you all the latest Chelsea news and all the transfer gossip as it breaks.
