Chelsea are in talks with @Borussia_Dortmund over Jamie Gittens and want to wrap up a deal before both clubs go to the Club World Cup.
Gittens, 20, was the subject of an enquiry from Chelsea in January and it is understood they have approached the German club about a deal in the current window.
The England Under-21 winger, who spent time in Chelsea’s academy as a child, has been expected to attract bids of more than £50 million, with a release clause of around that value in his contract.

🚨BREAKING! Chelsea would listen to offers for Sanchez, Petrovic, Veiga, Chillwell, Disasi, Fofana, Dewsbury Hall, Chukwuemeka, Ugochukwu and Sterling.
Wesley Fofana’s fitness problems mean that suitable offers for him will be hard to turn down.
Robert Sánchez and Djordje Petrovic are on the market for clubs looking for a new goalkeeper.
Chelsea like Eintracht Frankfurt’s Hugo Ekitike but see him as too expensive at £84m.
There is a feeling that Noni Madueke’s development has stalled.
Jamie Gittens is expected to cost Chelsea around £50m.
Nicholas Jackson’s Chelsea future will be in doubt if the club signs 2 strikers.

𝐎𝐅𝐅𝐈𝐂𝐈𝐀𝐋: Chelsea have completed the signing of Dario Essugo from Sporting CP, on a contract until June 2033. 🤝
Essugo began his career in Sporting’s academy and became the youngest-ever player to feature for the club when he made his senior debut aged 16 years and six days against Vitoria de Guimaraes in March 2021.
Later that year, he broke Luis Figo’s record as the youngest starter for Sporting, aged 16 years, 11 months and 17 days.
Having gained further experience with Sporting B and featuring on 23 occasions for the club’s first team, Essugo spent the second half of the 2023/24 campaign on loan at Primeira Liga side Chaves, for whom he made 14 appearances.
Two further outings for Sporting followed at the start of the 2024/25 season before Essugo completed a loan move to Las Palmas.
The 20-year-old established himself as a regular for the Spanish side, making 27 appearances and scoring one goal for Los Amarillos across all competitions.
On the international stage, Essugo has featured for Portugal at various age groups. His most recent caps have come with the Under-21s, with his last appearance coming during the March international break.

𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆: Jadon Sancho is leaving Chelsea when his contract ends on June 30 after an agreement could not be reached over personal terms for the winger’s loan move to become permanent.
Sancho, 25, joined from Manchester United last summer in a temporary transfer that featured an obligation to buy worth up to £25 million.
If the west London club opted against the acquisition they would face a £5 million penalty charge and that payment will now be incurred.
Sancho scored five goals and provided ten assists in 42 games for Chelsea with Enzo Maresca praising his contribution to the side’s achievements.
