 Replacing Kovacic, Chelsea agree to break transfer record to recruit ‘golden child’ of Brazil

Anh Tuan 30/11/2022

According to recent reports, Andrey Santos, a midfielder currently playing for Vasco da Gama, will be transferred to Chelsea for the sum of €15 million (roughly £13 million).

According to recent reports, Chelsea are very close to finalizing a deal to acquire Andrey Santos, a midfielder currently playing for Vasco de Gama, for the sum of €15 million (about £13 million).

The young player, who is only 18 years old, made his debut with the Brazilian club’s first-team earlier this year and has since established himself as a mainstay in the club’s central midfield position.

According to Le10 Sport, Paris Saint-Germain have been keeping an eye on Santos’ performances for a number of months, while Newcastle United and Barcelona have also been keeping track of the midfielder’s progress.

However, the report claims that Chelsea have moved quickly to wrap up a deal to sign Santos and that the midfielder will make the switch to Stamford Bridge in the January transfer window provided that he does not have a late change of heart.

According to another source, Chelsea’s offer “was judged more commensurate with the player’s expectations” than the project put out by PSG. This information comes from the first report.

At the same time, it is anticipated that Chelsea will finalize a €60 million (or £51.9 million) deal to sign RB Leipzig forward Christopher Nkunku at the conclusion of the current season.

It is believed that the 24-year-old player, who will not be participating in the World Cup campaign for France because of an injury, has reached a personal agreement with Chelsea.

On the other hand, Graham Potter’s players who are not participating in the World Cup started their training sessions again on Tuesday in preparation for their warm-weather camp in Abu Dhabi.

The match against Bournemouth on December 27 will mark the return to action for Chelsea after the club’s participation in the World Cup.

An update on Christian Pulisic’s injury is provided after the Chelsea star was rushed to the hospital following the United States’ triumph against Iran

Christian Pulisic is confident that he will be able to play when the United States of America face the Netherlands in the round of 16 of the World Cup.

The Chelsea forward scored the game-winning goal for his team in their last group match against Iran. He did it by reacting quickly to a cross from Segino Dest and heading the ball into the net near the end of the first half.

During the process, though, Pulisic collided with Alireza, the goalie for Iran, and was left needing medical attention from the United States medical team.

Even though he was able to get back on the field in time to finish the half, he was taken out of the game at the break for the half.

Later reports indicated that the young man, now 24 years old, had been transported to the hospital to have scans performed on an abdominal injury.

Pulisic has claimed that he will be available for Saturday’s match against the Dutch, despite initial concerns regarding his ability to play in that matchup.

Pulisic captioned a photograph of himself celebrating the win from his hospital bed with the words, “So proud of my men, I’ll be ready Saturday don’t worry.” He also included the photo.

The United States of America advanced to the knockout stages of the World Cup thanks to a goal scored by Pulisic. The United States finished second in their group behind England.

Timothy Weah and Weston McKennie, two of the Chelsea star’s teammates, paid tribute to him for putting his body in danger in order to advance the cause of his country.

Weah, a forward for Lille, noted that the team has put in a lot of work together in order to get to this point.

“I’d like to thank Christian. We are grateful to him and we love him. It’s a fantastic sensation.’

McKennie, who plays in the middle for Juventus, added, “Of course, we are really glad that (Pulisic) threw his body there.”

However, there are 25 more people on our team in addition to Christian who would also do the same thing.

Everyone is willing to contribute whatever they have. It is bad that he had to leave the game, but the fact that he is putting his body in harm’s way demonstrates how competitive this team is.
