STICKS AND STONES
Chelsea has been told to be ashamed of the Manchester City defence John Stones, it’s a “success story that awaits,” says Paul Merson.
Former Arsenal legend believes Manchester City’s 47.5 million pound mistake for Manchester City may be the best guy for the Blues’ baseline.
Merse told the Daily Star: “Chelsea pass and get John Stones because there’s a good story waiting for him.
“I said the Stones would do well there. And they deserve to choose it now. He doesn’t have much time in the City.
“Stones is of local origin. He’s an English international. They’ve given him a lot of experience. But he’s still young. It meets many requirements.
“It’s like David Luiz, who was phenomenal for Chelsea when Antonio Conte played with him in the middle of a three.”
FOR THE STORY
Former Chelsea manager Antonio Conte points to 27 million pounds after he was allegedly scammed through an investment manager in London.
The 51-year-old enjoyed a successful two-year stint at Stamford Bridge between 2016 and 2018, winning the Premier League and the FA Cup along the way.
But the Times reports that he has had less luck off the field, after making a 27 million pound investment in Kidman Asset Management.
Now Conte, along with seven investors, are taking action against the company’s chairman, Massimo Bochicchio, after failing to get the returns they say they were promised.
Bochicchio, 54, noticed that 47 million pounds of assets were frozen, adding the apartment in west London where Conte lived his tenure in Chelsea.
The precautionary measure granted through Judge David Foxton on July 17 after Bochicchio discovered that he had “violated the terms of 8 acts of agreement” that had been agreed with investors in May.
In addition to Conte, Bochicchio will pay 6.5 million pounds to Palesa Sarl, a Luxembourg-based company.
DOUBLE PROBLEM
The new Chelsea boys, TImo Werner and Hakim Ziyech, are on the hunt to leave after suffering damage to paint training.
BLUE IS THE COLOR
Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano says Chelsea is final in signing Thiago Silva and Kai Havertz, with Fikayo Tomori on loan.
He tweeted: “Thiago Silva at Chelsea, here we go! Brazil’s CB has already accepted Chelsea’s offer until June 2022.
“He will leave the PSG and point out the next two years. Not for Fiorentina. Offer to close the next few days.
After signing Thiago, Chelsea will give in to Tomori (League 1 opportunities – many interested clubs) and Bakayoko to AC Milan (advanced talks) and then to Emerson Palmieri, to conclude Ben Chilwell’s contract with Leicester.
“Havertz agreed and at the time of the paperwork.”

TOFFEE CAKE
Chelsea will reportedly send Fikayo Tomori on loan to Everton.
The Telegraph claims that Carlo Ancelotti needs to take the 22-year-old to Goodison Park and his defense.
Everton is willing to point to a central defender this summer, and Tomori would also provide canopy as a right-back.
The England foreigner played 22 times last season with Frank Lampard but lost his spot on the team at the end of the season.
Chelsea will now be signed to Thiago Silva for a loose move after leaving Paris Saint-Germain.
And the fact that Lampard also has Kurt Zouma, Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen at Stamford Bridge is to lend to Tomori for the minutes and experience he so badly needs.
He can return to West London in 2021 to upgrade to Silva, who will sign a first one-year contract with Chelsea.
Cook
Chelsea are engaged in talks with Serie A giants AC Milan and Inter, to drive the failures Tiemoue Bakayoko and Emerson for a million pounds, according to reports.
The pair are on the Blues’ list of moves as boss Frank Lampard looks at his team this summer.
He already got Timo Werner and Hakim Ziyech for 91 million pounds with Ben Chilwell for another 50 million pounds.
Chelsea’s head of movements, Marina Granovskaia, is guilty of balancing the books and reports say she is the departure of the two outcasts.
According to Italian journalist Nicolo Schira, Bakayoko is the last to return to AC Milan, where he spent the 2018/19 crusade on loan.
Emerson is also in talks with Antonio Conte’s Inter and the two are worth 27 million pounds.
Although he adds that the first moves will be loans for permanent agreements following the coronavirus pandemic.
JON THE CLUB
Chelsea joined through Leicester in the war by Jonathan Ikone, much appreciated by reports.
Ligue 1 team Lille is in a position to lose their midfield with two Premier League heavyweights circling.
The French club has already lost Victor Osimhen to Napoli and stares at Gabriel Magalhaes signing for Arsenal.
Now Ikone may be the last player to leave.
Le10 Sport says Lille will not force Ikone’s hand and pay attention to what the player should do.
Their traits are to leave now or stay year.
FOOT CHALLENGE
This is how the off-season compares to the Big Six before a busy Premier League season.
United has the shortest break for Liverpool, with Manchester City one more day, while Arsenal has the shortest resting period.
Chelsea and Spurs, by comparison, laugh to the beach bar.
THE LONDON APPEAL
Sky Sports journalist Kaveh Solkehol has revealed that Thiago Silva would like to be in London.
The Brazilian is reportedly about to seal a loose to Chelsea.
Speaking about the deal, Solkehol said: “He needs to move to London, no one has conceded more goals than Chelsea in the most sensible part of the Premier League.”
“Thiago Silva can this problem.”
