Chelsea scored late to win 2�? over Fulham and move back into the top 5 in the league. With just minutes left, Pedro Neto hit the net in the 93rd minute to seal the game. That gave the Blues three much-needed points.

The game had looked like a tie, but then young star Tyrique George scored in the 83rd minute to bring Chelsea level. It was the team’s first away win of the year.

If Chelsea stays in the top 5, they could play in the top cup in Europe next season. Coach Enzo Maresca said the win was key and showed the team still fights. He said they had worked hard all season, and this game gave them hope.

Even with the win, there are still big gaps. Star striker Christopher Nkunku was left out due to a ‘technical�?decision. Malo Gusto is hurt, and Mykhailo Mudryk may miss more games after a drug test issue.

Some of Chelsea’s top strikers still have not scored in weeks. Cole Palmer, Nicolas Jackson, and even Neto had been quiet for many games. Yet, this win may help them find their form again.

Chelsea grabbed a strong 3-0 win against Legia Warsaw in the first leg of the UEFA Conference League quarterfinal on Thursday, April 10. This gave the Blues a solid edge in their league title bid, as they sit comfortably at first place with 18 points.

After a slow first half, the goals came quickly in the second. Head coach Enzo Maresca praised his side for their ‘professional�?display, highlighting the younger players. Two academy graduates—Tyrique George and Josh Acheampong—stood out on the night with skills that helped seal the results.

Tyrique George’s first senior goal

Tyrique George scored early in the 49th minute of the second half. The 19-year-old forward slotted the ball into the net after the keeper pushed off Reece James�?long shot. This is his first senior goal for Chelsea and the first of the match. The winger himself felt delighted after his score, especially since it was his first one.

Maresca fell ‘in love�?with Acheampong

Josh Acheampong also made his senior debut this season and left a strong impression on Maresca. The 18-year-old showed an all-rounder performance, from being a full-back to a stand-out central defender. Maresca was full of praise for Josh, saying he ‘fell in love�?with him. ‘For me potentially he can be a fantastic player for this club and in football in general�? he added.

Chelsea FC is on its way to making big moves in the summer transfer window. It is targeting two rising stars: Dean Huijsen and Jobe Bellingham. The club is ready to outbid European rivals, including Real Madrid and Bundesliga teams, to secure their signatures.

Chelsea vs Real Madrid for Huijsen

Dean Huijsen, a 19-year-old defender from AFC Bournemouth, has gained interest from Real Madrid. His father’s recent visit to Madrid's grounds has made a buzz in the football community. 

Chelsea is ready to pay his �?0M release clause and offer higher wages. Dean, though, has only openly supported Los Blancos, which may also hint at his decision. 

Jobe Bellingham in high demand

Jobe Bellingham, the younger brother of Real Madrid's Jude Bellingham, is another top target this summer. The 19-year-old midfielder has shown top-notch plays, which drew interest from Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen.

Chelsea is willing to pay around £40M to bring Jobe to Stamford Bridge. However, Bundesliga clubs are also keen, so his price could increase, making Chelsea's bid tough.

These moves align well with the Blues' plan to invest in young talent for the future. As the transfer window nears, all eyes will be on whether Chelsea can outbid its rivals and land these young stars.

Cole Palmer’s tough time continued as Chelsea won 1-0 against Leicester City, with Palmer missing a penalty for the first time in the Premier League. The England player, feeling sick, still played and had a chance to end his eight-game goal drought. Yet, his shot was saved by Leicester’s keeper, Mads Hermansen. Palmer had been perfect with penalties until now, so this miss was a blow.

Last year, Palmer was one of Chelsea's top players, scoring 26 goals and giving 13 assists, but now his form has dropped. In recent games, including the win against Southampton, he wasted chances and seemed frustrated.

Despite the miss, Chelsea won with a goal from Marc Cucurella in the 60th minute. Palmer did not play well and was subbed off in the 73rd minute, his earliest change this season.

Coach Enzo Maresca revealed that Palmer had been battling a fever, yet still insisted on playing to help the team. Chelsea’s win moved them to fourth place, still fighting for a spot in the Champions League.
