‼️Joao Pedro, also wanted by Newcastle, is leaning towards a move to Chelsea if they can reach agreement on a fee.

Chelsea have had a proposal of around £58m rebuffed with Brighton wanting in excess of £60m.

🗣 Reece James on his free kick goal: "As I was walking over and I was speaking to the centre-backs, and I asked them what they wanted. They said a shot, cross or in-swinger, and I said no problem.

When I got to the ball and saw the goalkeeper's positioning; he showed me too much of the goal. So I just decided to shoot and it went in."

Ex-England U19 head coach Ian Foster on Gittens to Chelsea:

🗣 "It's no surprise to see that a club the size of Chelsea are in for Jamie. He's going to be up against some of the world's best full-backs in the Premier League next season and if he's having a tough time, he won't go missing. In fact, it will have the reverse effect, it will actually excite him.

I think he'd be a wonderful addition to the Premier League, he's got a vast amount of technical ability, skill plus the mindset to continue achieving great things."

Moises Caicedo is suspended for Palmeiras.

Nicolas Jackson returns from suspension and is available.

Players ONE yellow card away from suspension:
Cucurella, Colwill, James, Tosin, Neto, Palmer and Delap

Yellows cards are wiped after the quarter-final matches, so if any of them are booked in the next match, they’d miss the semi-final if we progress.
