Chelsea snapped up Cole Palmer from Manchester City last summer, and the 21-year-old has been Chelsea’s best signing under Todd Boehly’s reign.
According to reports by Simon Phillips, Chelsea are now interested in signing Manchester City fullback Sergio Gomez.
Writing in his Substack column (via Sportsmole.co.uk), Phillips reported that the Spaniard was one of a number of options that the Blues are looking at to strengthen the left-hand side of defence this January.
With Ian Maatsen out on loan, Chelsea do not really have cover on the left. Levi Colwill is a natural centre-back, Marc Cucurella is out injured and Ben Chilwell only just returned from a long injury layoff.

Konaté: “Success Will Come” Despite the uncertainty, Konaté remains optimistic. Speaking in a recent interview, the French centre-back emphasized that this phase is part of a bigger journey. According to him, Liverpool are still adapting — especially with new players settling into the squad. He believes that with time, chemistry will improve and trophies will follow. 🏆 He also pointed to last season’s success as proof that the team has what it takes to bounce back stronger. 🤝 A Call for Unity More than anything, Konaté stressed the importance of togetherness between the team and its supporters. He praised the Anfield faithful and urged everyone to stay united, insisting that better days are ahead if patience is maintained. ❤️ Interestingly, his comments come at a time when his own future at the club remains uncertain, with his contract situation yet to be resolved heading into the summer. 🔍 What Happens Next? Liverpool’s season is now entering a defining period. Results must improve, injuries need to clear, and stability must return — both on and off the pitch. But if Konaté’s words are anything to go by, belief inside the squad is still very much alive. And sometimes… that’s all it takes before everything turns around. 👀🔥

Gomez has had limited game time this season, with only four starts in all competitions; two of which came in the Champions League group games against Red Star Belgrade.
Gomez, 23, started in Man City’s 1-0 defeat to Newcastle in the Carabao Cup back in September (where he was deployed as a right winger), as well as the FA Cup tie against Huddersfield Town earlier this month.
It’s yet to be seen if Chelsea would really make this move.
