uba set for Chelsea talks: Atletico interested
Chelsea striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is due to have talks with the club to discuss his future.

Aubameyang has one year left on his contract and is not thought to be part of Chelsea’s plans next season.

It’s thought discussions will centre around what’s been described as “viable exit routes” for Aubameyang.

Sky Sports News understands a free transfer has not been ruled out.

Barcelona remain interested in bringing him back to the club, but have financial issues to sort before they can recruit new players.

Atletico Madrid are also thought to be keen. There is also interest from Turkey, the MLS, Saudi Arabia, Qatar - as well as an unnamed Premier League club.

Rangers sign Sterling
Rangers have a pre-contract agreement to sign Dujon Sterling from Chelsea.

The 23-year-old defender has signed a four-year deal at Ibrox and will official become a Rangers player on July 1, subject to international clearance.

The former Coventry, Wigan, Blackpool and Stoke player, who has represented England at U20 level, said: “I am really excited to come to such a big club, there's a lot of history and the supporters are so passionate, so I am thrilled.

“I wasn't expecting to make my mind up about my future this quickly, but the Gaffer came in for me straight away and what he proposed to me was everything that I believe I need.

“We were on the same wavelength, he believes in me and I believe in what he is trying to do as well so it was a no-brainer for me to come."

Milan in talks for Loftus-Cheek
AC Milan are in talks with Chelsea over the signing of midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek.

Loftus-Cheek has one year left on his contract at Stamford Bridge but has the option of a further year.

The 27-year-old appeared to say goodbye to the fans when he was substituted in Sunday's draw against Newcastle.

Earlier this month, Sky Italy reported Milan's interest, with the Rossoneri thought to be "cautiously optimistic" of getting a deal done.

Felix to return to Atletico Madrid as Chelsea reject permanent deal
Mauricio Pochettino does not want Chelsea to sign forward Joao Felix permanently, says the Atletico Madrid president.

Felix arrived at Stamford Bridge in January on a five-month loan deal from Atleti worth £9m - but the 23-year-old scored just four goals in 20 games at Stamford Bridge.

Now, Atleti president Enrique Cerezo has announced Chelsea will not take up the option to sign Felix permanently, under the orders of newly-appointed head coach Pochettino.

"Yesterday we had the news that the new Chelsea manager does not want João Félix," Cerezo told AS.

"We've known for less than 24 hours. He'll come back here and we'll see. We don't have anything planned."

Chelsea appoint Jurasek as new CEO
Chelsea have appointed Chris Jurasek as their new chief executive, with his arrival coinciding with Tom Glick's resignation as president of business.

Chelsea said: "Jurasek will take responsibility for all the business areas of the club and will report to the board alongside co-sporting directors Laurence Stewart and Paul Winstanley, who will remain responsible for all the sporting activities of the club.

Jurasek said: "I’m delighted to be joining Chelsea, a club which is loved and followed all over the world. I’m enormously proud to be leading it into the next chapter in its rich history."
