Guiu to RB Leipzig is done
Marc Guiu is leaving. RB Leipzig have a permanent deal for the striker, with a sell-on clause, after secret talks with zero links until now (1) (3) (6). Romano called it: done on both player and club side, and Guiu is set to travel (1) (8). Leipzig reportedly pay a seven-figure fee, base under €20m, and he signs until 2031 subject to a medical (4).
Fofana also out the door
David Datro Fofana is gone too, permanently, to Servette FC in Switzerland for around €3.5m (2). That is a fraction of what Chelsea paid. The squad clearout keeps moving.
Camara talks are live
Chelsea have made Monaco midfielder Lamine Camara a target (5) (9) (10). Chelsea sounded out Monaco around €40m. Monaco want close to €60m (5). He is one of several names on the shortlist (5) (9).
Fulham win, Brighton next
Chelsea won 3–2 away at Fulham in the West London derby on Monday (4). That puts you 7th with 3 points from one game. Brighton come to Stamford Bridge this Sunday, August 30 (4).
Fan-reaktioner
Enzo Fernández is the big talking point, not the outgoings. A Romano post says Enzo is expected to miss the Brighton match because the Manchester City transfer story has hit him hard, and he has given his green light to go. Fans are also tracking the fee detail on Guiu, with the reported base under €20m drawing attention. Full transfer window thread
