Chelsea have verbal agreement for second summer signing

It looks like Chelsea have their second signing of the summer.

It’s not the most exciting deal, but it’s a move nonetheless, and one apparently agreed by Todd Boehly himself.

Fabrizio Romano is tonight reporting that Chelsea have a “verbal agreement” with Chicago Fire for Gabriel Slonina, a player they were close to signing in January.

There are more details about the move now – it will be £10m, and the goalkeeper will stay on loan at Chicago Fire. That’s another new league to follow with the loan army right away, given their season is going on.

The teenage goalkeeper is one of the brightest talents in MLS, and it seems like the previous scouting team’s advice on his abilities have been heeded by the new ownership.

We’re set between the stick with Edouard Mendy in place for years potentially, but competition is never bad. This might be a deal that takes a few years to come good.

  1. Chelsea should go for Anthony from Ajax a wonder kid that has speed and dribbling accuracy that can take 3 people at a time. Chelsea sign this Brazilian attacker please

    1. The would never do that so sorry my darling club don’t know what is really wrong with them but I wish them all the best this coming season

  2. Chelsea needs a good gunman and a rudiger replacement.the board has to do something asap.last season we could have gotten more goals but the lack of finishing touches cost us.thiago is good but he nolonger has a combination,if he gets a kolubauly we will be safe.also ziyech can make plays he should stay

  3. I think Chelsea should access Armando broja during the preseason tour not wasting huge amount of money on striker’s

  4. Everyday all football players in the world are linked to Chelsea while other clubs have already signed needed players and are waiting for the 22/23 Season to begin. This is exactly what Chelsea did during pre season without signing anyone n Liverpool signed Diaz. They shld get serious and get 2 strong defenders and a Striker. We need to be top contenders nxt season. What’s all this delay n u guys r giving ur fans heart aches. Mek una sign players, Haba.

  5. in fact I’m confused with the way Chelsea fc & the Chelsea board I know that things are a bit different latterly but my is the new session is about to begin & defence of Chelsea is not yet resolved I think they are running out of time yet there is so much that they have to do with such Les time I’m worried about this another thing is Chelsea has this a tendency of leaving things for 2 lat it creates some ather kind of problems at later stage why are they not leaning from they previous mistakes & try and do things the correct way please
