Wesley Fofana latest, Marc Cucurella progress made and how Chelsea are preparing to beat Everton

In four days' time, Chelsea begin their 2022/23 Premier League season. A trip to Goodison Park to face Everton is first up for Thomas Tuchel and his players. Points cannot be dropped. Yet off the pitch, there remains a huge amount of uncertainty with the Blues intent on bringing in signings and offloading members of the first-team squad.

As has been the case throughout the summer, defence remains the priority. Chelsea have a strong interest in Leicester City's Wesley Fofana but may have to break the world-record fee for a centre-back – currently £80million – in order to secure the services of the 21-year-old.

Meanwhile, a deal for versatile Brighton and Hove Albion full-back Marc Cucurella is progressing swiftly. football.london understands personal terms have been agreed upon with the Spanish international and the Blues are confident of getting a move wrapped up in the coming days. They do not want to be gazumped once more.

Incomings will trigger outgoings – and there are likely to be a fair few before the transfer window closes at the end of the month. Kepa Arrizabalaga is edging close to a move to Napoli while the futures of Cesar Azpilicueta, Malang Sarr, Levi Colwill, Emerson Palmieri, Marcos Alonso, Kenedy, Ethan Ampadu, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Billy Gilmour, Ross Barkley, Timo Werner, Hakim Ziyech, Christian Pulisic, Callum Hudson-Odoi, Michy Batshuayi, and Armando Broja are undecided.
