The New Chelsea Era Begins Today 💥
Xabi Alonso is officially the manager of Chelsea Football Club, with his four-year contract starting today July 1, 2026.
However, Chelsea fans will have to wait a little longer for his unveiling... but one big announcement is on the way. 👀💙
Marco Palestra is expected to be announced in the next few hours as Chelsea's newest signing.
Xabi Alonso's official unveiling isn't expected just yet. He's reportedly still to return to Cobham, with the first-team squad not fully back for pre-season.
One announcement now. The other is just around the corner.

Moisés Caicedo's World Cup journey comes to an end as Ecuador fall 2-0 to Mexico.
The focus now shifts back to Chelsea, with Caicedo and Kendry Páez expected to join Xabi Alonso for the start of pre-season.

Moisés Caicedo on Enzo Fernández leaving Chelsea:
🗣️ “It’s a decision he’s made, and it’s not something that happened overnight. I think he wants to try a different path and I don’t see anything wrong with that.”
🗣️ “If he was still fully committed to staying here, then it would be a completely different conversation. But you can’t force a player to keep loving a project once his mind is elsewhere.”
🗣️ “Honestly, I wanted us to go a long way together. We came here with big dreams, we wanted to dominate the midfield for years and become Chelsea legends together.”
🗣️ “But football has its own way of changing plans. Sometimes the people you start the journey with aren’t the ones you finish it with.”
🗣️ “Now it’s my responsibility to keep fighting for this badge. I hope the team bounces back as soon as possible because this club belongs at the very top.”
🗣️ “As for me, I still have one dream—to become a Chelsea legend. That’s why I came here, and that’s why I’ll keep giving everything for this club.”
🗣️ “People will always leave, new players will always arrive, but my commitment hasn’t changed. I want to stay here for a very long time and build something special with Chelsea.”

Chelsea are aiming to finalize the deals for Maxence Lacroix and Granit Xhaka this week before turning their full attention to other areas of the transfer window.
Once those two moves are completed, the club's priority will shift to player departures. Chelsea are being patient with outgoings, making sure they don't weaken their negotiating position, as every player's value is important in the current market.
