Official: KV Kortrijk sign Harrison Murray-Campbell on loan from Chelsea
Preparations for the upcoming season are starting to get under way all across Europe, which means that we need to start getting a move on with a whole bunch of transfer and loan business. Here’s one complete from yesterday, with many more to go for players waiting to resolve their futures. The immediate future for […]
2026 World Cup, quarterfinals: Spain vs. Belgium
I was very much hoping that this game would be Spain vs. USA, in which case I would’ve made every effort to attend. Alas, it was not meant to be. The USMNT were a massive disappointment in the Round of 16, losing to a Belgium side that had struggled to impress consistently. They needed a […]

PICTURES: First day of 2026-27 preseason
The boys are back in town — or at least those boys who were not at the World Cup (or those still at the World Cup, obviously) — and we’ve also got the new gaffer taking charge of his first official training as Chelsea boss. Though it may be a bit hard to spot him: […]
Xabi Alonso starting from zero in yet another new beginning for Chelsea
It’s the first day of the 2026-27 preseason, and it’s the first day of Xabi Alonso getting to work at Cobham. And so, it’s time for his first interview as well. That’s a lot of firsts, and it’s a bit of theme. We are starting anew with a new manager, but in a way, we’re […]
2026 World Cup, quarterfinals: France vs. Morocco
After a well deserved day off, the most dramatic World Cup in recent memory returns with some quarterfinal action today, starting with France against the Champions (administrative) of Africa. France have rolled through the competition without too much trouble, certainly after the first-half of their first game against Senegal, winning all five of their games […]

Official: Geovany Quenda completes Chelsea move from Sporting CP
Geovany Quenda has arrived at Chelsea, nearly 16 months after the agreement to sign him was made official with Sporting CP. Per the terms of that agreement, Quenda spent all of last season with Sporting still, before making the move to England. That move is now officially official, with the 19-year-old announced by Chelsea earlier […]
Manchester United, Chelsea agree £50m Andrey Santos transfer — report
Andrey Santos is set to join Manchester United from Chelsea, after the two teams have reportedly agreed a transfer worth £50m today — meeting Chelsea’s previous reported asking price. According to The Athletic, £48m of that is payable up front, with a further £2m to paid after “easily achievable bonuses” are met. Chelsea are also […]
Sporting CP, Chelsea agree Jesse Derry loan — report
Academy youngster Jesse Derry (who joined our setup from Crystal Palace last summer) made a pretty good impression in his occasional first-team appearances last season, showing that he’s certainly ready for much more than what youth football — or just cameos off the bench at senior level, for that matter — can offer him. Along […]

Enzo Fernández scores winning goal in historic Argentina comeback against Egypt
The 2026 World Cup continues to serve up entertainment in spades — unless you’re a USMNT fan of course — as it somehow keeps topping itself with historic instant classics. Just when you thought it couldn’t get much better than Argentina’s 3-2 win over heroic Cape Verde, or England’s 3-2 win over Mexico at the […]

Only Hmm What a performance
2026 World Cup, Round of 16: Argentina vs. Egypt; Switzerland vs. Colombia
It was a sad end to the US’s run at the World Cup, beaten rather embarrassingly by a shadow of a Belgium side, especially after all the drama about Folarin Balogun’s red card. Turns out, that hardly mattered; if anything, it gave the Belgium team extra motivation and put extra pressure on the USMNT. And […]
Official: Everton sign Tyrique George from Chelsea
Tyrique George’s transfer to Everton has been made official today, with the 20-year-old joining on a four-year contract good through 2030. Everton are reportedly paying £24m, though that’s inclusive of the potential £6m in add-ons and bonuses, unlike initially reported (i.e. the fee was initially reported at £24+6m, but it’s instead £18+6m). Still a decent […]
2026 World Cup, Round of 16: Portugal vs. Spain; USA vs. Belgium
It’s the penultimate day of the Round of 16, and it’s the penultimate day of 27 consecutive days of football at the 2026 World Cup. I have no idea what I’m even going to do with myself the day after tomorrow, but we’ll worry about that later. (And that will largely depend on how the […]

England survive the Azteca in instant World Cup classic
In terms of home-field advantage on the international stage, it doesn’t get much greater than Mexico at the Estadio Azteca in Mexico City. Not only is the support world class, the stadium’s sitting at over 7000 feet above sea level — more than twice as high as the highest point in all of England — […]
Chelsea set £50m asking price for Andrey Santos, with Manchester United keen — report
According to a Guardian exclusive, Manchester United are ‘targeting’ Chelsea midfielder Andrey Santos, and are exploring a move with an ‘offer anticipated’ in the near future. No word on how much to anticipate that anticipated offer, but Chelsea are anticipating a number ‘in the region of £50m’. Santos himself is said to be ‘open to […]

2026 World Cup, Round of 16: Brazil vs. Norway; Mexico vs. England
It promises to be a blockbuster day today at the World Cup, with two marquee matchups in the Round of 16. First, it’ll be Vini Jr against Erling Haaland in the early game, as Brazil look to see off upstarts Norway and reach the quarterfinals for the ninth tournament in a row. In fact, only […]
Everton, Chelsea agree £24+6m Tyrique George transfer — report
Tyrique George spent the second half of last season at Everton, impressing the locals in his limited minutes and cameos. But even though his loan included a loan-option, the Toffees would decide to pass. However, they did not want to pass on the player himself. So instead, they’ve now negotiated a separate transfer agreement, which, […]
Cole Palmer to use World Cup snub as motivation for next season
After a fantastic debut season and an excellent sophomore effort, Cole Palmer’s third season in Chelsea Blue was a bit of a disaster. Injuries hit, form dropped, and he never could quite reach the heady heights that we’ve come to expect from him. Though he still hit double-digits in goals, he was less “Cold” Palmer […]
2026 World Cup, Round of 16: Canada vs. Morocco; Paraguay vs. France
And then, there were 16. The Round of 32 served up some quality entertainment, but it may have saved its best for last, specifically the game between Argentina and Cape Verde. It was a battle for the ages, between the defending champions and one of the smallest countries to ever qualify for the World Cup. […]
The Daily Hilario: First pitch
Throwing out the ceremonial first pitch is a nice little tradition before every baseball game, and last night, the entire US Men’s National Team got to do so for the Seattle Mariners, ahead of Monday’s Round of 16 match against Belgium (the football stadium is across the street from the baseball stadium, incidentally). Mauricio Pochettino […]
