Good morning and welcome to football.london’s live Chelsea blog on Saturday.
The Blues are engulfed in multiple rumours as the drama surrounding Roman Abramovich’s government sanctions continue to rumble on.
It is easy to forget that there is still football to be played! Thursday night saw Thomas Tuchel’s side beat Norwich 3-1 at Carrow Road despite only learning of the sanctions hours earlier.
They are back in action tomorrow with the visit of in-form Newcastle, with Eddie Howe’s side having won their past three games in the Premier League.
How much talk in the build up is about the game, however, remains to be seen.
With that in mind, stick with us and we will keep you up to date with all the latest news from Stamford Bridge.
