    Chelsea line up Lewandowksi transfer
    Chelsea are lining up Robert Lewandowski as a back-up target for Gabriel Jesus after Arsenal took a huge step towards signing the Brazilian, according to reports.
    Chelsea had hoped to sign Jesus, 25, to solve their centre forward woes, with Timo Werner also struggling for goals following his 2020 transfer.

    Tuchel is desperate for an elite striker to finally solve his forward dilemma, with the boss keen on his wealth of Premier League experience and versatility.
    But with Arsenal leading the race for the Manchester City star, Tuchel has turned his attention to Lewandowski as a back-up option, according to Christian Falk.
    Chelsea must offload Romelu Lukaku
    Chelsea should get rid of striker Romelu Lukaku and ‘send him off in a cab’ back to Inter Milan this summer, according to talkSPORT’s Simon Jordan.
    The former Crystal palace claimed getting a £20m loan fee for the striker would be a good deal, arguing
    He told talkSPORT: “It’s interesting that they are going to put him out on loan and want a £20m loan fee because it means they can keep him on their balance sheet and still demand money for him.
    “So if Chelsea can keep him on their balance sheet and put him out on loan and get £20m for him, they are actually making a monetary transaction that makes financial sense.
    “In 18 months time or a year’s time, Inter might then find themselves in a better position and Chelsea might be able to punt Lukaku out for £70m or £80m, and they will actually make money from a transaction.
    “So from a footballing point of view, if Tuchel doesn’t want him then it’s a no-brainer, he’s got to go.
    ““He’s already made his position clear, he’s already virtue signalled his way back to the Italian fans by telling them, ‘I would like to come home one day’ – well, off you go then, we’ll send you there in a cab!”
    Chelsea enter Lewandowski transfer race

    The Belgian arrived from Inter Milan for £97.5m last summer, but has struggled to fit in Thomas Tuchel’s style of play.
    Speaking about Lukaku’s future, Jordan said: “If they ship him out for £60million, they’ve got no loss on their balance sheet and they can go again with somebody that might actually want to be there and somebody that might actually do what they’re paid to do.
    “He doesn’t really want to be there, so sell him.”
    Blues striker shortlist revealed
    Chelsea have compiled an attacking wishlist, with Romelu Lukaku likely to leave.

    Jorginho no longer ‘untouchable’?
    Juventus could offer Merih Demiral to Chelsea in exchange for Jorginho, with the Italian midfielder no longer considered “untouchable”, according to reports.
    Chelsea chief Tuchel has a plan to rebuild and could use Jorginho, 30, as a pawn to land a freebie to help ease his woes.
    The Italy international was considered “untouchable” by Stamford Bridge chiefs and was even tipped for the Ballon d’Or as recently as last year.

    But according to CalcioMercato, Tuchel is happy to move on from the midfielder, who’s hot form cooled late last season.
    And Juventus are set to take advantage by offering a straight swap.
    Demiral, 24, spent last season on loan at Atalanta, but the Serie A side rejected their £15million option to sign the Turkish international permanently.
    The centre-back is not in Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri’s plans.
    The Old Lady boss was set to put Demiral on the transfer market for around £25m.
    Kounde has agreed a deal with Chelsea
    Sevilla defender Jules Kounde has reportedly agreed a five-year deal with Premier League side Chelsea.
    Kounde, 23, has been a long term target for Thomas Tuchel’s team as they look to replace departing key defenders.

    According to Sport, Kounde has agreed a five-year deal with Chelsea but a fee with Sevilla is yet to be struck.
    Barcelona are the major competition in landing the centre-back.
    Cataluyna Radio claims that Barcelona are in “advanced negotiations” with Sevilla for the French international – but that personal terms have not been agreed with the player.
    Chelsea a ‘realistic destination’ for Nkunku
    Former Blue Glen Johnson reckons that Christopher Nkunku should move to Stamford Bridge after being linked with Chelsea and Manchester United.

    Johnson said: “I believe Chelsea is a more realistic destination than Manchester United if both clubs are genuinely interested.
    “A player going to a top team that’s had a really good season will be looking for Champions League football… I definitely think that’s where these sorts of players look first.
    “If he was to leave RB Leipzig, then I think Chelsea could be a better fit.”

    The last time Arsenal faced Patrick Vieira’s men away from home, Palace stuck three past them in a major blow to their top-four hopes.
    Liverpool fans will then be given a first glimpse of club record signing Darwin Nunez in competitive action.
    Jurgen Klopp’s domestic double Reds travel to Championship record goal scorers Fulham.
    Fabio Carvalho could feature against his old club Fulham after leaving for Liverpool on a free transfer.
    Bournemouth’s return to the top flight will see them face a new look Aston Villa at 3PM.
    Leeds vs Wolves, Leicester vs Brentford, Newcastle vs Nottingham Forest and Tottenham vs Southampton make up the rest of the 3PM kick-offs on the opening weekend.
    Everton will then close the opening Saturday when they welcome Chelsea to Goodison Park in a 5.30 kick-off.

    2022/23 Premier League opening weekend
    The Premier League fixtures have been released!
    We have a Friday night bout between Arsenal and Palace to open the Premier League season.
    Promoted Fulham are up against Liverpool in the early kick-off on Saturday.
    And champions Man City face a tricky away tie at West Ham on Sunday.
    Bring it on.

    Jules might be stolen
    Chelsea target Jules Kounde is reportedly in advanced talks over a move to Barcelona.
    Kounde, 23, has been a long term target for Thomas Tuchel’s team as they look to replace departing key defenders.
    Both Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen are leaving for free and centre-back Kounde seems the perfect fit.
    But now Cataluyna Radio claim that Barcelona are in “advanced negotiations” with Sevilla for the French international.
    There is a £51million deal lined up which would see the Catalan club also send a player in exchange.
    It would be a major blow to Chelsea’s transfer plans, in the first window of the Todd Boehly era.

    And Cavani has instructed his representatives to find him a club in Spain, according to Mundo Deportivo.
    The same outlet labels Atletico Madrid as a potential destination, with Cavani coming close to joining the club twice in the past.
    If a move to Spain is not possible then a big-money move to the MLS is also a possibility.
    Veteran forward Cavani is targeting a place in Uruguay’s World Cup squad later this year.

    The former Inter Milan captain netted just five goals in all competitions last season.
    And PSG want to replace Icardi with Sassuolo’s Gianluca Scamacca, who scored 16 times in Serie A.
    It’s reckoned there aren’t many takers for Icardi.
    So PSG have asked his representative Mendes to try and facilitate a move to Wolves.

    Icardi was considered one of the world’s best during his time at Inter.
    The 29-year-old scored 124 goals in 219 games before joining PSG in 2020.
    And despite starting well in the French capital, Icardi has gradually become no more than a bit-part player.
    Bruno Lage has no plans to replace Raul Jimenez this summer.
    But Icardi could be seen as a filler for youngster Fabio Silva, who is in dire need of regular minutes.
    His wages are sure to be an issue though, with Icardi currently pocketing £160,000-a-week at PSG.
    And with his agent Wanda Nara – who is also his wife – known for her tough negotiating skills, Icardi could well end up staying put in Paris. More

    Bruno Lage sees Palhinha as the perfect replacement for £50m-rated Ruben Neves, who has been linked with a move away from the Midlands this summer.
    However, Wolves’ attempts to get the Palhinha transfer over the line was initially delayed by Fulham making a last-ditch hijack attempt with a slightly lower fee.
    Sporting Lisbon are keen to sell to add to their kitty for this window, but the decision is ultimately down to the player.
    And now, SunSport understands that the West Londoners believe they are in a strong position to snatch Palhinha away from Molineux.

    The 25-year-old has two years left on his current contract but has spoken of his desire to play for a European heavyweight.
    Manchester United and Barcelona have shown an interest, but they are yet to make a formal bid and Neves’ agent Jorge Mendes is struggling to attract an acceptable offer.
    There are concerns within Wolves that the longer Neves remains at the club, the more this could delay their attempts to bring players in, including Palhinha.
    Wolves boss Lage has said in the past he would love to keep Neves at the club, yet would be satisfied if the right offer came along. More

    But Arsenal have been monitoring Osimhen since his days in France.
    And Arteta reckons he would be the perfect replacement for Alexandre Lacazette, who has just rejoined Lyon on a free transfer.
    Napoli are demanding £86m to let Osimhen go this summer.
    Yet Arsenal have not been put off by the price tag, it’s claimed.

    And they are even willing to meet it knowing that United are not prepared to pay that fee.
    Should Arsenal bid £86m, it would shatter the £72m fee they paid for Nicolas Pepe in 2019.
    Arsenal’s move for Osimhen comes as they also close in on Gabriel Jesus.
    It’s reckoned Man City are set to accept a £50m bid from the Gunners, despite additional interest from Chelsea and Spurs.

    It has been stated that City want to wrap up the transfer of Phillips before they head out for their US tour in July.
    The 26-year-old is claimed to have told Leeds of his intentions to join Pep Guardiola’s squad.
    A fee of around £50million is believed to be enough to get a deal over the line.

League fixtures announced for 2022-23 with Ten Hag facing tricky start
    According to The Athletic, the Yorkshire outfit are in competition with Southampton for the 18-year-old’s services.
    The Belgian youth international, who featured twice for City during the 2021-22 campaign, is highly-rated at the Etihad.
    Boss Pep Guardiola is reluctant to let him go as it is thought he has what it takes to succeed at the highest-level in the near future.
    But the news outlet states that City would be prepared to let him depart for Leeds in the hope it will sweeten a potential deal for Phillips.
