      “We had lost to Watford and Manchester City, I think, and he came with the stats of the team. I showed them to my assistants and I told them, ‘Be careful as one day this boy will take one of your places’.
      “But in fact I compare him with me at his age, where I would try to do the same sort of things for my dad — of course with different technology methods, but analysis from a kid aged 16 then.”

      Chelsea fans no longer want Paulo Dybala transfer after finding out which other playmaker they are linked with

      by

      CHELSEA fans have called on the club to sign Lyon forward Rayan Cherki ahead of Roma man Paulo Dybala.Dybala, 29, is being linked with a move to Stamford Bridge this summer – with Blues centre-back Thiago Silva revealing he begged the Argentine to join him in West London.

      Rayan Cherki could be set for a move to Stamford Bridge this summer
      But ESPN are now reporting Lyon star Cherki, 19, is another Chelsea target.
      Paris Saint-Germain saw a bid rejected for the Frenchman back in January.
      However, Lyon are understood to be open to a sale as they bid to offload players this summer in order to keep within Financial Fair Play regulations.
      And Chelsea have a good relationship with the Ligue 1 club as they signed Malo Gusto from them in the January window.
      READ MORE ON CHELSEA
      Cherki, who has a contract with Lyon until 2025, contributed four goals and six assists in 21 league matches last season.
      He also impressed at the Under-21 European Championships for France – where they were eliminated in the quarter-finals – with Chelsea scouts in attendance to watch the versatile playmaker.
      Cherki, who would set Chelsea back in the region of £34million, can play on either flank, as a No10, or even a false nine.
      And Blues supporters are far more keen on him compared with Dybala.

      When comparing the two, one social media user said: “This isn’t even a debate. One is 19, one is 30. It’s definitely Cherki. Besides maybe we get both 🤷🏻‍♂️.”
      Another added: “Cherki without any second thoughts. Younger and maybe has the higher ceiling. His injury record is far more impressive, and his age will again be beneficial to us because he’ll get to play and build a long-term chemistry with our youngsters.”
      While a third replied: “Give me Cherki. Don’t want a player that’s being shipped around everywhere and living on past hype.”
      Chelsea have signed a number of young players since Todd Boehly’s takeover including the likes of Mykhailo Mudryk, Enzo Fernandez, Marc Cucurella and Noni Madueke.
      But they have seen a host of players leave this summer such as Kai Havertz, Mason Mount, Mateo Kovacic, Kalidou Koulibaly, Edouard Mendy, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, N’Golo Kante and Cesar Azpilicueta.
      New manager Mauricio Pochettino is overseeing mass change among personnel as he attempts to turn around the club’s fortunes following their 12th place finish in the Premier League last season. More

      The forward returned 10 goals and six assists in the Serie A in 25 appearances – despite many of these appearances coming from the bench.
      It’s been a busy summer for departures at Chelsea after kicking things off by sending Kalidou Koulibaly and Edouard Mendy packing to Saudi Arabia.

      Christian Pulisic is expected to follow Ruben Loftus-Cheek in joining AC Milan with the two clubs agreeing a £19million deal according to The Athletic.
      Meanwhile Pochettino was asked about how his move to Chelsea will effect his relationship with Spurs fans during his first press conference as Chelsea manager yesterday.
      He said: “I don’t believe that the fans will change but what can they do? Nothing.
      “For me it is about being focused on trying to do my job here. What can I say or do if that happens [Spurs fans hating him] It’s up to them to keep or not the feelings they were feeling in the past.” More

      But Chelsea want to sell the striker, and according to Gazzetta dello Sport, the Italians are preparing an offer of £25.6m.

      Lukaku joined Chelsea at 17 from Anderlecht but after three years and two loan moves he joined Everton.

      I’m boss of Inter Milan – I set up a secret Instagram account to spy on my players’ Wags

      A video emerged from the discussion in which Ausilio describes an unnamed partner of one of his players causing him “so many problems”.
      He went on to reveal this led to him creating an Instagram account in an attempt to keep an eye on what the squad’s other halves were posting.
      He said: “Now I confess one thing. I don’t have an official Instagram account but I did set one up because the famous wife of a player was causing me problems.
      “Many things can be understood from wives and girlfriends, including the footballer’s personality.

      “Then I also follow players, even from other teams. But I created it for a footballer’s wife who was giving me so many problems.”
      It is unclear who Ausilio was referring to when discussing the issues his players’ partners have given him in the past.
      But those on social media are convinced he was talking about Wanda Nara, the wife of former striker Mauro Icardi – who scored 124 goals in 219 games for the club.
      Wanda, 36, who is also Icardi’s agent, hit the headlines last year when she was forced to deny fake reports she had an affair with Icardi’s ex-Inter team-mate Marcelo Brozovic.

      She went on to insist Icardi, who left Inter for PSG in 2019, had to leave the Italian giants as a result of the allegations.
      Four years ago, she also enraged Inter CEO Giuseppe Marotta by claiming her husband had turned down financially lucrative offers to stay at the San Siro.
      She also slammed the club for leaving Icardi out of their starting line-up, saying: “He (Icardi) didn’t miss the game, but you missed him. You’ve missed him in the league and also the Champions League. Mauro’s scored eight goals in 11 matches against Juventus.”
      And Ausilio’s comments were met with a host of responses speculating about Wanda being the “problem” Wag.
      One social media user said: “It must have been Wanda.”
      While another simply added: “Wandona.”
      But there is no indication Wanda is in fact the person Ausilio is referring to.
      Other Inter Wags include Nicolo Barella’s wife Federica Schievenin, Edin Dzeko’s partner Amra Silajdzic, Lautaro Martinez’s wife Agustino Gandolfo, and Alessandro Bastoni’s other half Camilla Bresciani.

      Premier League giants United are expected to rule this month on whether to restore the 21-year-old forward to manager Erik ten Hag’s squad.
      His three options are staying with the Red Devils, moving to another English club or elsewhere in Europe perhaps on loan.
      Yet new uncertainty has been raised about whether he would be welcomed in Serie A despite rumoured interest from various Italian clubs.
      Greenwood was exiled from the Old Trafford club after being charged with sexual offences and violence against a woman after troubling images were posted online in January last year.
      Read More On Manchester United
      He was later charged with attempted rape, assault and controlling and coercive behaviour, but the CPS dropped its case in February.
      The £75,000-a-week star has been suspended on full pay but has been undergoing private one-to-one coaching sessions at an £85-an-hour public pitch.
      The Sun revealed on Saturday former United boss Jose Mourinho had telephoned Greenwood to sound him out about a loan move to Italian Serie A side Roma.
      A source said: “Jose rang Mason’s dad and also spoke with Mason. He told him the best way out of his current situation is to start playing football — and that eventually all the hassle will fade away.
      Most read in Football
      “Mason was pleased that he got in touch and it has lifted his spirits.
      “He wants to get back playing and is just waiting for United to tell him what the future holds.”
      Former Red Devils defender Chris Smalling — who played with Greenwood — left Old Trafford for Roma on loan in 2019.
      United are said to have had contact with other Italian teams Juventus, AC Milan and Inter Milan about potential moves.
      Yet doubts have now emerged over a move to Italy, with suggestions there could be a backlash despite Greenwood being cleared of all charges, according to The Athletic.
      Italian football’s anti-violence campaigns
      Serie A has a partnership with the WeWorld non-profit organisation which campaigns to raise awareness of violence against women.
      The league has dedicated a matchday to the issue in each of the past six seasons.
      High-profile names who have spoken out in support include Luciano Spalletti who managed Napoli to last season’s league title and Italian World Cup winners Alessandro Del Piero and Marco Materazzi.
      Members of Manchester United Women’s team have reportedly raised concerns about the prospect of Greenwood returning to the training ground.
      Yet ten Hag has appeared to suggest he would be prepared to welcome Greenwood back into the fold.
      Greenwood is set to become a dad later this month, with his partner, enjoying a baby shower with pals last weekend.
      She posed in front of a flower backdrop and was spotted hugging various friends.
      She also flashed a beaming smile while cradling her bump in front of a balloon arch.
      The couple were previously spotted at the five-star Langham Hotel in central London.
      Greenwood was given his England debut by manager Gareth Southgate as a late substitute against Iceland in September 2020, though has not played for his country since.
      Two days after the Iceland game he and Manchester City midfielder Phil Foden were withdrawn from the squad for breaching Covid guidelines by leaving the part of the hotel where they were staying.
      New photos have shown how the striker has discarded his long wavy hair in favour of a crew cut.
      A source said: “Mason hasn’t really been out for a good few months so he hasn’t really had to bother too much with his personal appearance.

      “But getting a new trim is another indication that he is going to be playing football somewhere next season.”
      Bradford-born Greenwood has scored 35 goals in 129 appearances for Manchester United, having joined the club as a six-year-old.
