“West Ham will rate incredibly high rates,” they advised resources on diversity of 65 to 70 million pounds, don’t want to sell and are in a position of contractual strength.

Ornstein told Tifo’s football podcast: “We know [Chelsea’s] interest in Leicester City’s Ben Chillwell, I don’t think everyone is convinced at Chelsea of the prices it will take to praise him from Leicester.

But reports in Portugal say Chelsea and City have contacted Joelson’s adviser, Kia Joorabchian, to discuss possible deals.

However, the Hammers categorically denied that an offer had been made for rice.

Liverpool is a surprise move for Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger, according to reports.
Frank Lampard is believed to be in a position to pay attention to the German’s delivery in 30 international matches after a series of disappointing performances this season.
He endured a difficult afternoon in the FA Cup final against Arsenal, then fell in the 4–1 loss to Bayern Munich.
But still, according to Mundo Deportivo, Jurgen Klopp is in a position to take a leap to land the 27-year-old.

WAKE UP THE RUD
Liverpool can make a surprise move to point to Chelsea’s Antonio Rudiger, according to reports.
Mundo Deportivo’s rumour segment says Jurgen Klopp will update Dejan Lovren after his move to Zenit St. Petersburg.
The sale of Rudiger would possibly also loosen Chelsea’s budget to point to names such as Ben Chilwell and Declan Rice, and David Ornstein reported that the Blues board is not yet convinced that the rates charged through Leicester and West Ham, respectively, are valuable.

Timo Werner’s former partner supported him at Chelsea.
But speaking to Sport-Information-Dienst, former German RB Leipzig teammate Yussuf Poulsen warned that the 24-year-old would probably want time to settle down.

“Of course, you will first have to meet your teammates and the league; you can’t show all your qualities right away.
“But he’ll come in time.”
