According to the metro, we've signed Josi Quintero from Barcelona.

Chelsea have left Barcelona fuming after raiding their academy to sign exciting winger Josi Quintero.

The 17-year-old was rated as one of the hottest prospects in Barca’s famed La Masia youth system – but the Blues have managed to convince him to quit the Spanish club and move to England.

Arsenal and French club Lyon were also rumoured to be keen on bagging the prospect, who is famed for his speed and brilliant dribbling ability.

But Quintero announced last week that he was holding talks with Chelsea and now the transfer has now been completed, with the player posting snaps on Twitter showing him signing the contract.

I don't think any youth players has ever (recent times, that is) made it to the senior squad. I also get this idea that the youth team is mainly focused on generating revenue (by selling youth players).

So, is there any statistics on how much Chelsea have earned (net/gross) from (youth) player sales!!!

[Kick]

It does happen, Look at Barca or Bayern or Arsenal.

Also, I would have no idea about youth pay.

From his point of view, why?

Former Chelsea youth Michael Mancienne has returned to England after a 3 year spell at Hamburg in Germany and has signed for Nottingham Forest on a 3-year deal.

Spent a few minutes working out who that was from the face, before reading the text.

Good luck to him.

Mourinho:
-

"We don't want a squad of only end products. We also want to bring to the first team, three or four under-21s, we are going to develop players and are happy with this balance we have."

With Mikel rumoured to be leaving he would be a great understudy for Matic.

Any reason Baker and Boga should not be on the squad this season?

I am having hard time believing Salah is better then Bogba tbh. I hope it is just Ramadan that Salah is playing so badly.
