Although the story seems to crop up every transfer window, the reactions, feelings and emotions change like the wind. Just the thought of seeing a Chelsea icon back in the royal blue at Stamford Bridge is enough to get the fans excited.
Todd Boehly is already closing in on a triple deal as Chelsea prepare to announce Raheem Sterling, Kalidou Koulibaly becomes their big-name centre back target, and Nathan Ake makes his own return to the club, but no feeling comes as close to butterflies in the stomach as a loved player returning back to his spiritual home.
This trio almost certainly won't be it for the incomings, let alone the endless possibilities with players leaving the club this summer as well. It promised to be busy as soon as Boehly and Clearlake were announced as the new owners, and it hasn't disappointed so far.
