Renato Veiga is becoming a member of Juventus on a mortgage deal for the remainder of the season that doesn’t embody a purchase possibility.
It’s my opinion that I might be very shocked if he’s no longer bought in the summertime anyway, however that’s for an additional article at a later date. We are going to wait and see.
The extra urgent concern for me proper now could be who replaces him in our squad? We now have only one left again in Marc Cucurella. Ben Chilwell is predicted to be bought, though I’ve nonetheless heard completely nothing on that and don’t know the place he’s going to go along with simply 8 days remaining. Even nonetheless, they already froze him out and handled him like filth, so his Chelsea profession is over regardless.
So when Cucurella is burned out, injured, or we simply must rotate, who’s taking part in left again?
When it comes to what we now have heard, there isn’t a lot. We do have a shortlist of latest left backs that we like, however that was at all times anticipated to be one thing we’d most certainly have a look at in the summertime. Will they now dip into that? I’m not so certain.
The whispers we now have been listening to about is that the most certainly situation proper now for the remainder of the season might be to make use of Malo Gusto because the left again backup till the top of the season.
And that’s superb, IF Reece James additionally stays match and wholesome. Chelsea additionally do have Ishé Samuels-Smith rising up within the academy. He’s an 18-year-old left again who does look superb, so they might promote him for the second half of the season. However I’d be shocked in the event that they do that as the primary backup selection. Perhaps as second behind Gusto.
However with the quantity of days left within the window now, and the actual fact they shockingly appear to be prioritising a brand new winger probably the most out of the rest, I can’t foresee a brand new left again coming in now. I’ll await to listen to data from sources, however probably the most we’re listening to proper now could be it is going to be Gusto because the Cucurella backup till the summer time at the least, then it is going to be re-assessed. We do have left backs we’re , however up till now there was no enquiries or developments. This might at all times change fast if wanted.
I do nonetheless have a sense we might nonetheless get Douglas Luiz although, with Veiga’s deal to Juventus going by way of. However let’s see, it’s only a feeling and clearly he’s not a left again!
