There will be ‘new meetings today’ for one Chelsea transfer move as a journalist drops some positive updates on the situation and plans today.
A lot is going on with Chelsea right now with a few situations bubbling up. One of the biggest talking points has been the Conor Gallagher situation, with the midfielder returning to the UK today to train with Chelsea U21s whilst the club fumble around trying to sort out a deal for him to join Atletico Madrid.

But perhaps a more exciting story for Chelsea supporters is the situation of Victor Osimhen, with Chelsea clearly being interested in bringing him in this month before the window closes.
New meetings today
According to our own writer Simon Phillips in his latest updates on his personal Substack site, Chelsea and Napoli are holding new meetings this week regarding Osimhen.
Phillips says: “There is now a new meeting scheduled between Chelsea and Napoli for today/tomorrow that is specifically to speak about Osimhen and whether it can be done. Chelsea will push again and continue back in talks.
“Remember, as we reported here last week, Osimhen is keen on joining Chelsea – that side is not a problem. But that doesn’t mean he will just agree to a big wage drop. This has to suit all parties and there is a lot of negotiating that needs to be done.
“As we also reported and was then confirmed by others, both Didier Drogba and John Obi Mikel have been in the ear of Osimhen AND Chelsea to push them both to get this done!”
