Det er fandme pinligt og amatøragtigt, at det kikser med Hutchinson og Ziyech.

Fernandez always wanted the move. This was made clear in the hours leading up to deal, but also in early January when Chelsea first tried. A deal until summer 2031 had already been agreed prior to the club-to-club agreement.

So much has been made of the price, and the wild negotiation, but obviously key to all this was Chelsea´s obsession with the player. Fernandez was named best young player at the World Cup and is a complete midfielder. He´s box-to-box, and an attacking threat.

Plus he has the same kind of defensive traits as N´Golo Kante. Profile is outstanding. He´s an ´engine-room´ type midfielder whose not contributes to attack and defence but is also very much the missing piece #CFC need as they build identity and consistency under Graham Potter.

The Blues are set to pay the Saints a hefty compensation fee for the highly-rated teenage talent, who is now widely regarded as one of the best young prodigies within English football.

Arsenal, Leeds and Manchester City were also linked with a move for the striker but Chelsea wasted no time at all to beat their transfer rivals to a deal.

Chelsea managed to tie up a deal for Morgan despite the fact he had 18 months left on his scholarship contract as they now prepare to welcome him to their prestigious youth set-up at Cobham.

However, it has now been claimed by BILD that Bellingham is not keen on a move to Chelsea due to the erratic spending by the American.

Chelsea’s owners see this spending as a 5-10 year project where this is all capital investment and value of club will double.

They are willing to go as big for the next two years - so expect much more.
