The dust has barely settled on the Premier League season and Chelsea are already looking to dominate the close-season headlines. The Blues are close to making their first signing of the summer, with a deal agreed for Brazilian wonderkid Estevao Willian, and have now on the search for yet another new manager after Mauricio Pochettino left by mutual consent.

The search for the new Blues boss is reportedly expected to last only “days” rather than weeks, and will surely come with its own list of transfer targets. Reports suggest Kieran McKenna will turn down a fresh contract offer from Ipswich It also is thought to all-but confirm that homegrown talents Conor Gallagher and Trevoh Chalobah will leave. Tottenham are interested in both, particularly the midfielder, and have also been linked with Bournemouth striker Dominic Solanke and Brentford's Ivan Toney.

Arsenal are also in the hunt for a new striker, with Ajax’s Brian Brobbey and RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko considered more realistics option than Newcastle's Alexander Isak. Justin Bijlow is a goalkeeper target. A reported £21m bid for Fenerbahce defender Ferdi Kadioglu is also reportedly inbound. Manchester United, who Mauricio Pochettino is believed to be keen on taking over if Erik ten Hag is sacked, are linked with Crystal Palace winger Michael Olise. Liverpool are also busy building a new team for Arne Slot. Follow all the latest news, rumours and gossip with Standard Sport's live transfer centre below!
