Another day at Chelsea, and another one or two departures are expected to be confirmed.
Chelsea are having a mass clear out right now, and there are a number of players heading to the exit door at Stamford Bridge, some quite significant in the squad, others really not or have hardly featured, it at all.
Some of them of course are highly rated promising young players, and this next one probably falls under that category.
Striker Ike Ugbo has been close to leaving Chelsea for some time now, and he looked dead cert on joining Belgian side, Genk.
However, a spanner has landed in the works of that deal, after Marseille have entered the fray.
According to transfer reporter Fabrizio Romano, Ugbo must now chose which club he will join out of the two parties in order to get the move completed, with Chelsea waiting patiently to see it done.
Emerson Palmieri will complete his move to OL from Chelsea today. Loan agreed between clubs and deal to be signed in the next hours after medical tests.
Chelsea are also waiting for Ike Ugbo to decide between Genk and OM bids [with Benedetto set to join Elche]. #OM
