  • Chelsea are in discussions to recall Marc Guiu from his loan at Sunderland and have contacted Sporting Lisbon regarding their striker Conrad Harder.
  • These potential moves are a contingency following Liam Delap's hamstring injury, which could keep him out for up to two months.
  • Nicolas Jackson's agreed year-long loan to Germany was reversed, with Chelsea recalling him and Bayern backing out of the deal, though Jackson's team remains hopeful for a resolution.
  • Currently, Joao Pedro is the only fit striker available to head coach Enzo Maresca after the international break.
  • Guiu, who joined Chelsea in 2024, scored six goals in 16 Conference League appearances last season but has only made one league appearance for Sunderland.
