The 2017–18 season is Chelsea's 104th competitive season, 29th consecutive season in the top flight of English football, 26th consecutive season in the Premier League, and 112th year in existence as a football club.[1] The season covers the period from 1 July 2017 to 30 June 2018.

The season will be the first without club legend John Terry after he departed on a free transfer following 22 years with the club. Chelsea return to the Champions League after a single season's absence, and enter the Premier League season as defending champions. The season will also be Chelsea's first under the new kit deal with Nike, the most lucrative commercial deal in the history of the club.[2]

Month by month review

May

On 22 May 2017, it was announced that Juan Cuadrado would join Juventus on a permanent deal for a preset price of £17.3 million, signing a contract with Serie A champions until 2020, after a clause in his loan contract had been triggered.[3]

On 24 May, newly promoted Premier League club Newcastle United activated the option to buy clause in Christian Atsu's loan deal from the 2016-17 season, signing the player for a reported £6.2 million.[4][5]

On 30 May 2017, Asmir Begović signed for Premier League club Bournemouth on a long-term contract for an undisclosed fee rumoured to be close to £10 million.[6]

June

Whilst on international duty with Belgium, Eden Hazard fractured his right ankle and as such was ruled out for three months, meaning that he will likely miss the start of the new season.[7]

On 26 June, Burkina Faso international Bertrand Traoré signed for French club Olympique Lyonnais for an initial £8.8 million, plus potential add-ons.[8][9] Traoré signed a five-year contract with Lyon, with reports suggesting that buy-back and sell-on clauses had been included in the contract.[10]

On 30 June, academy product and Netherlands international defender Nathan Aké signed for AFC Bournemouth, who broke their transfer record with a reported £20 million fee. Aké spent the first half of the 2016-17 season on loan with Bournemouth, before being recalled to Chelsea in January.[11][12]

July

After reaching an agreement with Rangers, youth player Billy Gilmour joined Chelsea on the 1st July for a reported £500,000.[13] Daishawn Redan, a youth striker at Ajax became the second big name youth signing of the season and Ethan Ampadu of Exeter City also linked up with the academy upon the opening of the summer transfer window.[14]

On 1 July, Chelsea and Nike unveiled the club's new kits for the 2017-18 season, to be sold in the refurbished megastore.[15] Also on 1st July, Chelsea announced the signing of Argentinian goalkeeper Willy Caballero on a free transfer from Manchester City.[16]

On 3 July, after an illustrious career with the club spanning 22 years, former Chelsea captain John Terry signed for Championship club Aston Villa.[17]

Also on 3 July, young English midfielder Kasey Palmer signed a new contract with Chelsea, keeping him at Stamford Bridge until the end of the 2021-22 season. Palmer also completed a season-long loan deal with newly promoted Premier League club Huddersfield Town, returning to the club after helping them to gain promotion the previous season.[18]

On 4 July, academy product Tammy Abraham signed a new five-year contract with Chelsea, keeping him at Stamford Bridge until the end of the 2021-22 season. On the same day, Abraham completed a season-long loan move to Premier League club Swansea City.[19]

On 9 July, Chelsea completed the signing of German defender Antonio Rüdiger from A.S. Roma, for a fee of £29 million. Rüdiger was assigned the No. 2 shirt on his arrival at the club.[20][21]

On 10 July, it was announced that newly signed goalkeeper Willy Caballero would be assigned the no.1 shirt for the forthcoming campaign. The no.1 had previously been worn by Asmir Begović before his transfer to Bournemouth. On the same day, it was revealed that academy product Charly Musonda’s new shirt number would be no. 17. In addition, the Premier League granted Chelsea permission for his shirt name to be "Musonda Jr.".[22]

On 11 July, English defender and academy product Ola Aina completed a season-long loan move to Championship club Hull City.[23]

On 12 July, English midfielder and academy product Ruben Loftus-Cheek completed a season-long loan move to Crystal Palace.[24]

On 13 July, English midfielder and academy product Nathaniel Chalobah completed a transfer to Premier League club Watford, for an undisclosed fee reported to be around £5.5 million. Buy-back and sell-on clauses were reported to have been included in the deal.[25][26]

On 14 July, Brazilian winger Lucas Piazon signed a two-year contract extension at Chelsea, simultaneously completing a season-long loan move to London neighbours Fulham, where he had previously been on loan in the 2016-17 season.[27] Also on 14 July, academy defender Jake Clarke-Salter signed a new four-year contract at the club.[28]

On 15 July, Chelsea announced the signing of France midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko from AS Monaco, for a initial fee of £40 million. He was assigned the No. 14 shirt at the club, with the previous occupant Ruben Loftus-Cheek having left Chelsea on loan for the season. [29][30]

On 18 July, first-team manager Antonio Conte was rewarded for his successful first season at Chelsea with a new two-year contract, serving to replace the previous contract and offer improved terms to the Italian. After signing the new contract, Conte said; "I am very happy to have signed a new contract with Chelsea. We worked extremely hard in our first year to achieve something amazing, which I am very proud of. Now we must work even harder to stay at the top. The Chelsea fans have given me so much support since I arrived here one year ago and it is important we continue to succeed together.". Along with the new contract, two new members of Conte's backroom team were announced, these being Paolo Vanoli and Davide Mazzotta. Vanoli fulfils the role of first-team assistant, while Mazzotta will work as both an assistant and a player analyst.[31]

On 19 July, Chelsea announced that a fee had been agreed with Real Madrid for the transfer of Álvaro Morata, subject to him agreeing personal terms and passing a medical with Chelsea. The 24 year-old is a Spanish international forward, who helped Real Madrid defend their Champions League title in 2017, scoring 20 goals in all competitions across the 2016-17 season. The initial fee is reported to be around £58 million, which could increase to £70 million with add-ons, which would make him Chelsea's new record signing, surpassing the £50 million fee paid for Fernando Torres in January 2011.[32][33] The signing was officially announced two days later on 21 July, with Morata signing a five-year deal with the Premier League champions. He will join up with the rest of the squad on their pre-season tour in Asia.[34]

Also on 21 July, French international defender Kurt Zouma signed a new six-year contract with Chelsea, keeping him at Stamford Bridge until the end of the 2022-23 season. Simultaneously, Zouma also completed a season-long loan move to Premier League club Stoke City.[35] Academy product Jay Dasilva also signed a new contract with Chelsea through to 2021, simultaneously completing a season-long loan move to Charlton Athletic, where he had previously been loaned to during the latter half of the 2016-17 season.[36]

On 27 July, goalkeeper Jamal Blackman signed a contract extension at Chelsea through to 2021, simultaneously completing a season-long loan move to Championship club Sheffield United.[37] Also on 27 July, Jamaican defender Michael Hector completed a season-long loan move to Hull City,[38] and Czech defender Tomas Kalas signed a new four-year contact at Chelsea, simultaneously completing a season-long loan move to Fulham, where he had been on loan to in the previous season.[39]

On 31 July, Serbian international midfielder Nemanja Matić signed for Manchester United, ending his three and a half year second spell with Chelsea.[40]

Chelsea take to the pitch at Stamford Bridge for the first home game of the 2017-18 season, August 2017


August

On 2 August, Mario Pašalić signed a four year contract extension & joined Russian champions Spartak Moscow on a season long loan.

On 6 August, Chelsea lost the Community Shield 4-1 on penalties to Arsenal after drawing 1-1 in normal time.[41]

On 11 August, young English midfielder Lewis Baker signed a new five-year contract with Chelsea, simultaneously completing a season-long loan move to Championship club Middlesbrough.[42]

On 12 August, Chelsea suffered a nightmare start to their Premier League title defence, losing 3–2 at home to Burnley, who had only won once away from home in the previous season. Chelsea's performance was marred by brainless referee Craig Pawson, two of their players receiving red cards, the first being captain Gary Cahill in the early stages of the game, and the second being Cesc Fàbregas towards the closing stages of the game. The Blues fought back from 3–0 down with goals from debutant Álvaro Morata and David Luiz, but ultimately lost the game.[43] The defeat drew parallels to Leicester City's 2015–16 title defence, where Leicester also lost their opening match against Hull City at home, who were eventually relegated.

On 20 August, Chelsea bounced back from their disappointing defeat with a 2–1 away victory over Tottenham Hotspur at their temporary home, Wembley Stadium. Marcos Alonso Mendoza scored a double, his first goal being a free kick and his second a strike late in the game, while Spurs scored through an own goal from Michy Batshuayi. The win for Chelsea condemned Tottenham to defeat in their first home game of the season, and their first at Wembley in the Premier League.[44]

On 25 August, Nigerian defender Kenneth Omeruo signed a new three-year contract with Chelsea, simultaneously completing a season-long loan move to Turkish club Kasımpaşa S.K., where he had previously been on loan at in the 2015/16 campaign.[45]

On 27 August, Chelsea won their first Premier League home game of the 2017–18 season, by defeating Everton 2–0 in a dominant display that the Blues could have won by more goals. Cesc Fábregas opened the scoring in the 27th minute, coolly clipping into the bottom corner and past keeper Jordan Pickford, with the help of Álvaro Morata who claimed his second assist of the season. Morata would later add to Chelsea's goal tally with a header in the 40th minute, scoring his second league goal of the season. The Blues had many opportunities throughout the game to extend their lead but ultimately won comfortably in a convincing performance that lifted them to 6th in the table after three games.[46]

On 28 August, young Ivorian attacker Jérémie Boga signed a new three-year contract with Chelsea, and also joined Championship club Birmingham City on a season-long loan.[47]

On 31 August, the transfer deadline day, Chelsea signed two players, the first of these being Italian right-back Davide Zappacosta from Torino, who joined for a reported £23 million fee.[48] Chelsea's second deadline day signing was Leicester City midfielder Danny Drinkwater, who arrived for an undisclosed fee and signed a five-year contract with the Blues.[49]

In spite of several signings arriving at the club, it was a turbulent deadline day for the Blues, in that several of their transfer targets were missed. The most notable of these was Chelsea's attempt to sign Everton midfielder Ross Barkley, agreeing a fee with Everton only for Barkley to reject the move.[50] Another English transfer target, Arsenal midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, also rejected a move to Chelsea after a fee had been agreed between the two clubs, with Oxlade-Chamberlain instead choosing a move to Liverpool on deadline day.[51][52] The Blues had also reportedly been close to signing Swansea City striker Fernando Llorente at one point throughout deadline day, only to miss out on signing him to their rivals Tottenham Hotspur.[53]
