The transfer window risks causing new victims at Chelsea. The arrival of Xabi Alonso on the bench further redraws the hierarchy of certain positions within the workforce. If the future of Enzo Fernandez is not assured, he who wishes to leave against the wishes of his club, others are invited to find a new challenge. This is the case of Andrey Santos (22 years old), reveals the BBC.

The Blues would like to take advantage of the Brazilian to make a good sale, while the market for the midfielder position has heated up following the record transfers of Elliot Anderson to Manchester City (€135 million), Mateus Fernandes to Tottenham (€98 million) and probably Sandro Tonali (€115 million), still with Spurs. The London club is monitored by UEFA and the Premier League regarding its financial balance. The former Strasbourg resident, who arrived for €23 million from Santos in 2022, already has quite a few courtiers.
