Rafael Leão to Chelsea was a rumour killed earlier on in the transfer window.
The £130million release clause was something that was frowned upon by Todd Boehly and the new ownership at the time.

Chelsea are still locked in talks with Barcelona over the signing of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang whilst Anthony Gordon is being priced out of a move. With this said, football.london rounds up all the latest on the transfer saga regarding this 23-year-old talent who has been described by many supporters as a game-changer type of signing.
