News about Loic Remy

After starting his career with Ligue 1 Brest last season, a former Premier League striker has announced his retirement from football at the age of 36. During a five-year tenure in England's top flight, the forward played for four different Premier League sides, but it is perhaps most well-known for his time at Stamford Bridge. In 2015, the Frenchman lifted the Premier League and League Cup, scoring 12 goals in 47 appearances for the Blues in Chelsea. Before moving to Las Palmas in 2017, he played for Queens Park Rangers, Newcastle, and Crystal Palace. Loic Remy has decided to call time on his football career after finishing his time with Brest in France.

Chelsea seems to have started again. Timo Werner (right), the latest in a long line of big-money, high-profile knock flops, is expected to leave Stamford Bridge in the wake of much anticipation - and then fail. Werner will not be the first striker to leave this season, with Romelu Lukaku's farewell to Inter Milan in June, a year after the club's first signing. Fernando Torres (inset) and Ballon D'Or winner Andriy Shevchenko (second left) failed to live up to expectations, although Blues fans may recall Adrian Mutu and Mateja Kezman's appearances, as well as Didier Drogba (left). Sportsmail navigates Chelsea's litany of costly mistakes up front, with Werner's medical at RB Leipzig set for Tuesday.
