Chelsea begin contract talks with two star players.

Chelsea have resumed talks with two key players for a new and improved contract following their performance against Everton.  
Thiago Silva and Conor Gallagher are two names on the lips of Chelsea fans whose current contract situation is still in the air. 

Earlier in February,  Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano tweeted: 

"Chelsea are progressing in talks with Thiago Silva to extend the contract for one more season, valid until June 2024. Discussions ongoing, waiting for green light. "

No matter how much money Todd Boehly can spend during transfer windows, it is clear that  after the Everton clash, Silva is still in a class of his own.

"Considered top player and leader into the dressing room, Chelsea hope to complete the agreement soon." — Fabrizio Romano had added. 

The veteran himself whose current contract expires in June had confirmed he was still in talks with the club over a new contract. 

He told ESPN:

 'We are negotiating [a new deal].

'Everything will probably happen in the next few days. My intention, and that of the club as well, is to stay together. I know that the club needs me right now.'

 The 38-year-old went on to add: 

'I am here to be able to help, they are young players, anyway. I know that, with my experience, I can help in this process of rebuilding the club, I'm here for that, willing to do this, however, I know that my responsibility is very great.'

Conor  Gallagher on the other hand, has been in negotiations with Chelsea for some time over a contract extension – with his current deal set to expire in 2025 – but talks are currently at a standstill.

Sources state that Gallagher is demanding over £150,000 per week from the Blues but that is far more than they are willing to give him.

However,  it remains to be seen if talks will be successful and both are handed new contracts as they are both key players at the club.

  Stamford Bridge will be completely filled with Chelsea fans looking to push our women’s team forward to another UEFA Women’s Champions League final. The Blues took a big step towards that objective in the first leg of the semifinal, beating Barcelona 1-0 at their home turf to inflict their first ever loss in five years. However as manager Emma Hayes said right after that match last weekend, that was only half-time. It took us a superb effort and a level of play we haven’t consistently seen throughout the season, to get a positive result in Catalunya. We need to match that intensity and quality if we are to come out today with the final tickets on hand. Chelsea starting lineup (4-3-3): Hampton | Lawrence, Carter, Buchanan, Charles (c) | Cuthbert, Leupolz, Nüsken | James, Macario, Kaneryd Substitutes from: Musovic, Bright, Ingle, Reiten, Kirby, Périsset, Mjelde, Cankovic, Beever-Jones, Björn Barcelona starting eleven: Coll | Paredes, Paralluelo, Graham, Patri, Aitana, Bronze, Rolfö...

He is currently still at his club Independiente Del Valle before officially joining Chelsea at the end of this season. Last night, he played against Palmeiras and scored an absolute wonder goal and also bagged an assist in a game that he was somehow on the losing team in, going down 3-2 at home after a late stoppage time winner by the visitors But as you can see from the clip below, Paez was on fire!
