Enzo Maresca on Jadon Sancho's future with Chelsea

Chelsea take on Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League tonight, as Enzo Maresca’s side look to land a blow on their rivals in the race for Champions League football.

The Blues began the week in fourth place despite a mixed run form over the last few months, but after Manchester City and Newcastle both picked up wins on Wednesday, they have dropped to sixth ahead of Spurs’s visit.

Any slip up at this point could prove costly in the battle for a spot in Europe’s premier cup competition, with just five points separating Chelsea and 10th-placed Bournemouth ahead of kick-off.

But it doesn’t get any easier for the Blues as they prepare to take on Spurs tonight.

Though Ange Postecoglou’s side started the week in 14th, they still possess the quality to hurt any of the league’s top teams, and this particular rivalry has a track record of producing fireworks in recent seasons.

Mauricio Pochettino ‘would like’ Tottenham return and reveals Daniel Levy relationship

Mauricio Pochettino has revealed he wants to return to Tottenham at some stage in the future.

Pochettino was sacked by Tottenham in 2019 after leading Spurs to the Champions League final and three top-three finishes in a row in the Premier League.

He is considered to be the club’s greatest modern day manager but is under contract with the United States through to the 2026 World Cup, a tournament they will host.

Chelsea’s absurd finances are a mess of the Premier League’s making

Even by football’s standards, there was considerable shock. WhatsApps immediately went around executives at the news that Chelsea look to have avoided breaching the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability Rules last season by selling their women’s team and other subsidiaries to the club’s parent company.

The Blues announced a £128.4m profit in their financial results for the year ending June 2024, up from an announced pre-tax losses of £90.1m in the first full year under Todd Boehly's Clearlake Capital consortium, with fans increasingly disgruntled with the ownership.

All of the jokes about what they could next sell to themselves don't seem like jokes anymore. A hotel is one thing. But an actual football team? This is what a club is supposed to be about. It’s the entire raison d’etre.
