The Blues set to make Eder Militao their top target

And Chelsea will be looking to lead the way after failing to add any players to their squad in January.

The Blues are reportedly set to make Eder Militao their top target as they aim to replace Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rudiger.

The Brazilian's current club, Real Madrid, may just be keen to do a deal after reportedly splashing out on a mega-contract for PSG's Kylian Mbappe.

Growing crowd trouble could wreck the special atmosphere at English grounds - Thomas Tuchel

Thomas Tuchel fears growing crowd trouble could wreck the special atmosphere at English grounds.

Chelsea’s boss spoke out after Antonio Rudiger was hit by a bottle opener and a lighter hurled from the section of Stamford Bridge housing Tottenham’s fans.

Blues defender Rudiger made it known to referee Paul Tierney but is not taking the matter further.

This incident comes at the end of a weekend in which disorder has resurfaced at Premier League grounds.

Objects were hurled by Everton fans in their defeat to Aston Villa on Saturday and there were pitch invasions at Southampton during their draw with Manchester City that evening.

Tuchel said: “If it’s a new trend we should act together to stop it as soon as possible to protect the environment of this game and the atmosphere that’s absolutely unique in England.

“I love to have the fans close to the pitch.

“Not behind fences and not behind nets. It’s a brilliant atmosphere.

Weekend News Recap

Friday night’s Premier League clash between Watford and Norwich was plunged into chaos when the floodlights failed.

The floodlights in each corner of Vicarage Road began to dim and referee Mike Dean deemed it was unsafe to continue – even though visibility was not interrupted.

The delay lasted ten minutes before Dean consulted the two managers and captains and asked if they were happy to continue, which they were.

The game also produced one of the goals of the season when Norwich ace Josh Sargent flicked the ball with his heel goalwards and magically hit the net - before doubling the Canaries’ lead after the floodlight chaos.

Meanwhile, Chelsea pair Ben Chilwell and Reece James shared a photo together of their rehabilitation.

The Blues full-backs were all smiles in the gym as they worked on getting back to full fitness.

The English duo’s Blues team-mate Antonio Rudiger could end up staying at Stamford Bridge - if the club manage to stump up £220,000-a-week to meet the defender's demands.

However, Thomas Tuchel’s side will have to move swiftly as the German’s contract is up in the summer and Man United are hot on his heels.

United’s rivals Man City look set to beat them in the transfer race for River Plate’s Argentina international forward Julian Alvarez.

Reports in South America suggest a deal is close between City and the striker who was previously linked with a move to Old Trafford.

Antonio Rudiger demanding increase contract offer

Antonio Rudiger is reportedly demanding that Chelsea increase their contract offer to £220,000-a-week if they want to keep him at the club.

The Blues' initial offer of £140,000-a-week allegedly incensed the German who turned it down as he allegedly wants to be among the top 10 highest-paid players at Stamford Bridge.

And according to Marca, the defender - who's being chased by several of Europe's big guns as his contract's expiration date looms - will only consider staying with the Blues if they meet his improved demands.

The Blues' Premier League rivals Manchester United have reportedly set their sights on the 28-year-old.

Real Madrid were also chasing Rudiger, but have ended their interest due to his agents demanding a hefty £20m signing-on fee.

Real's withdrawal from the race has put United in pole position to land Rudiger if Chelsea can't convince him to stay put - although Juventus, Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich are all said to be waiting in the wings.

Glen Johnson is pleased Thiago Silva signed a new contract

Former Chelsea player Glen Johnson is pleased Thiago Silva signed a new contract but he urged The Blues to tie up other stars.

Several players' contracts are expiring at the end of the season, including defenders Antonio Rudiger, Andreas Christensen and Cesar Azpilicueta.

And although Chelsea extended Thiago Silva's stay by a further year earlier this month, there is plenty of work to be done.

Johnson told Bettingodds.com: "I don’t think Thiago Silva staying eases the pressure off keeping Rüdiger - I think Chelsea still need to sign Rüdiger to a new contract.

"Silva has only signed for another year and he can’t play every single week.

"They’ve done well to keep him but I think Chelsea need to make sure Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rüdiger are kept long-term as well.

"Silva has been fantastic since he came to Chelsea. Helping all the young players, the guy’s got experience coming out of his ears, and he’s still enjoying his football.

"It’s great that he’s signed another year.”
