City interested in Marcus Bettinelli, seeking their Scott Carson replacement. Follows @mcgrathmike.

Chelsea confirm Sarr's signing from Strasbourg, for fee above €14m. He will go to the Club World Cup.

Sancho's loan officially ends on June 30 but he won't be playing in the Club World Cup. Expecting that centre back Mamadou Sarr, joining from Strasbourg, will go, though.

Very sad news to wake up to. Malcolm was hugely influential both at Fulham and within the game. His reputation for spotting talent spoke for itself, and he was a key reason why #FFC consistently found top players at youth level. A big loss. Thoughts with his friends and family.

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our colleague and dear friend, Malcolm Elias, after a short illness. The Club’s Head of Academy Recruitment, Malcolm had a fantastic reputation in football for unearthing and nurturing young talent. A proud Welshman, https://t.co/fsrbTfe4Z9

Parallel universe where Cherki is patrolling the Cottage? Hindsight makes this attempt seem... audacious😅 (incredible cameo vs Spain last night)

RE update on Cherki, as reported by @hugoguillemet and others, Fulham's bid has been accepted by Lyon. But at this stage Cherki isn't committed to deal. Palace interest, PSG no intention of bidding. With @AdamLeventhal + @MattWoosie: https://t.co/D4KCrwtOrS

Cole Palmer to wear No 10 for Chelsea -- which had been Mudryk's shirt number. Delap to wear No 9. #cfc

Considering how competitive the striker market is this summer, at the top end of the Premier League, £30m for Delap looks like a really good pick up on paper. Still a few unknowns and is a step up for him, but with his suitors, picking Chelsea is a vote of confidence. #cfc

Chelsea have completed the signing of Liam Delap for £30m. Told £20m up front, while Ipswich retain a sell on %. Contract until 2031. Delap: "‘I wanted to come here to win trophies. When I spoke to the club, everyone wanted to get back to the very top." #cfc
