Liverpool's dominating 3-0 victory over Sevilla, Arsenal's resilient 2-1 win against Lyon, and Chelsea's 1-0 defeat to Inter Milan in pre-season friendlies provide a glimpse into the teams' current form. These matches are crucial for clubs to refine their strategies and assess player performances ahead of the new season.

Celtic FC triumphed over Chelsea FC with a commanding 4-1 victory in a friendly match at GEODIS Park in Nashville, Tennessee. Giorgos Giakoumakis shone brightly, netting a hat-trick to secure the win. Jota also added to Celtic's tally, while Chelsea's Raheem Sterling scored their lone goal from a penalty. This match was part of both clubs' preseason tours in preparation for their respective leagues.

Chelsea Football Club has announced the signing of 19-year-old American defender Caleb Wiley from Atlanta United for £8.5 million. Wiley, who has made significant strides in Major League Soccer, will join on a six-year contract. The plan is to loan him to Strasbourg for additional experience. This move solidifies Chelsea's commitment to young talent and international prospects.

Chelsea is in discussions to sign 18-year-old Omari Kellyman from Aston Villa, with the young talent valued at £20 million. Simultaneously, Chelsea is negotiating the transfer of Ian Maatsen to Villa for £37.5 million. Conversations about Jhon Durán and other striker targets like Samu Omorodion and Dominic Solanke are also ongoing.

Ian Maatsen, Chelsea's promising left-back, has been named to the Netherlands Euro 2024 squad after Frenkie de Jong's injury. Initially overlooked by Ronald Koeman, Maatsen's inclusion is unexpected. He has yet to make his senior debut and may not play a significant role. The Netherlands will face France, Poland, and Austria in Group D.

This weekend's Premier League matchups bring high expectations, with Liverpool forecast to surpass Tottenham comfortably. Chelsea is anticipated to secure a substantial victory against West Ham. Meanwhile, Manchester United's challenging season is likely to face further difficulties.
