“Lies” – Player comes out to shut down big Chelsea transfer rumours ahead of summer | OneFootball

A player has done something that not many do in these situations, he has come out and personally shut down a big transfer rumour.

The news comes off the back of Chelsea beating Leicester City 1-0 in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon in what was a vital three points in the race for Champions League spots.

EXCLUSIVE! Chelsea have new Bournemouth attacker name as a ‘massive’ transfer target for the summer!!

It didn’t look like it was going to be Chelsea’s day after Cole Palmer missed a first half penalty when most of us would of put our houses on him scoring it.

Enzo Maresca was very pleased with the three points but he did once again threaten to take off one of his players if they went against his passing tactics.

All in all though it was a good afternoon for Chelsea as they firmly put themselves back in to fourth place in the Premier League.

Gavi not going anywhere

It’s quite rare to see players taking a step to come out and deny transfer rumours, but that is what Barcelona star Gavi has done this week.

In recent days, the 20-year-old midfielder has been linked with a €60m [£50.5m] move to Chelsea by Fichajes, a an outlet in Spain – but Gavi insists there is nothing to support their claims.

“People say things, they talk of offers here and there, but they are lies,” he revealed in the wake of Tuesday’s UEFA Champions League win.

“I signed a five year contract here, and I am going to see it out, because this is my boyhood club. [Squad] rotation happens, it’s okay and the coach trusts in me.”

Sounds like he’s all good to stay and fight for his place!
