Chelsea Roundup: PSG Eye Top Target, Watford Keen On Star Midfielder And More

Chelsea has had a difficult start under new manager Antonio Conte as they have failed to land their targets in the summer transfer window and have faced few difficulties in the opening weeks.

However, Conte has switched the system to 3-5-2 in an attempt to make their defence more solid which has helped Blues achieve eight consecutive games in Premier League as they have demolished Manchester United 4-0 and Everton by 5-0 at Stamford Bridge and have also managed an impressive 3-1 win win away to Manchester City last season. The Blues will be hoping to continue their good form in the coming weeks as they have a genuine chance to win the Premier League this season.

Here we look at all the stories around Chelsea today.

Chelsea defender John Terry has no plans to take up a coaching role in the English national team setup, according to ESPN FC.

The 36-year old is still active as a player for Chelsea and is keen to continue his playing career unlike his compatriots Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard who are ready to start their managerial careers.

However, despite not interested in the England job, John Terry is planning for his coaching badges as he might soon join his former teammates in managing.

Paris Saint Germain have reportedly opened up talks with Arsenal and Chelsea target Ricardo Rodriguez, according to RMC.

The 24-year old has been one of the best full backs in Europe and has set high standards for himself since joining Vfl Wolfsburg. He is expected to leave the club for his development next summer but PSG are keen to sign him as early as January. He has a £21million release clause and French champions are ready to activate it.

Spanish giants Atletico Madrid have joined Chelsea in the race to sign talented Napoli defender Faouzi Ghoulam, according to reports in Italy.

Calciomercato claims Atletico Madrid are eager to sign Ghoulam whom Antonio Conte is willing to sign in the January transfer window as he can operate as a left wing back for the club.

The 25-year old Algerian has made 100 appearances for Napoli during the las three years and remains an integral part in their squad.

Chelsea star winger Willian has revealed that he has snubbed Blues London rivals Tottenham Hotspur before moving to Stamford Bridge in 2013. The Brazilian was on the verge of moving to North London before being appraoched by then Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho.

Willian said: ‘I don’t know how I can explain that moment. But it was the best moment I think in my life when I signed with Chelsea because it was my dream to come here.

‘When I came I am very, very happy to play for Chelsea, to win titles here, so I am very, very happy.

‘Yes, it was difficult (to turn down Tottenham). But I didn’t sign. When at the last moment Chelsea call me, I say I’m sorry but I go to Chelsea, that’s my dream. I have to go there, I don’t care. I go there.’

Watford Striker Odion Ighalo has urged his club to make a move for Chelsea midfielder John Obi Mikel who has been out of first team for a while now.

Conte has restricted him to a bench role as the Nigerian international is into his final year at Chelsea and is eligible to sign a pre-contract in January. Mikel has been linked with Marseille and Chinese Super League but the midfielder is yet to decide on his future.

Odion Ighalo said: “I would like it if Mikel joined me at Watford. He is my captain at the national team. Apart from that he is a very good player, very talented.

“There is no team in the Premier League that will not want to have such a player. I am happy I have played with him so I will be very happy to have him in my team.”
