Team News: Chelsea hopes to sign Meinian as soon as possible, and even consider taking him to the Club World Cup

According to the "Team News", Chelsea hopes to sign Meinion as soon as possible, and the Blues even consider bringing the French to the Club World Cup. For the player himself, he is full of expectations for a move to the Premier League, but the decision is not entirely in his hands. Negotiations between the two clubs are progressing smoothly, and new news is expected to come after international match day.

This summer, Chelsea made its second attempt to introduce Meinian. The French goalkeeper's contract with Milan has only one year left, and he does not intend to renew it. Although the club has requested renewal many times, they have been rejected. Meiniang, who is about to turn 30, hopes to determine his future as soon as possible.

In the 2025-26 season, AC Milan will miss the Champions League, while Chelsea will compete in the Champions League. In the goalkeeper position, Chelsea's current No. 1 goalkeeper Robert Sanchez performed poorly, and Danish goalkeeper Philip Jorgensen, who was introduced from Villarreal for 25 million euros last summer, was also not completely satisfactory.

Milan priced Menion 25 million euros, which included floating terms, and Chelsea believed the other party asked for too high prices. However, Milan's new coach Allegri hopes to keep the French goalkeeper and plans to meet with the players after the national team match to try to convince him to stay.
