If there’s one thing that’s going to make Chelsea fans even more gloomy after three defeats in a row, it’s seeing their players linked with moves away.
Enzo Fernandez cast doubt on his future last week, and today there are fresh rumours from CaughtOffside that Andrey Santos could be on the move.
“In Italy, both Inter Milan and Juventus are believed to be closely tracking his situation, viewing him as a potential cornerstone for their midfield rebuilds,” the piece reads.
It’s suggested that complying with Profit and Sustainability Rules (PRS) rules may tempt Chelsea into a sale now that the Champions League looks like a long shot.
Santos a long way from exit – but rumours are a bad sign
We wouldn’t worry too much about this rumour just yet. Santos has a long contract and looks set to be an important part of Chelsea for a long time. Unlike Enzo, who has won a World Cup and may see himself already as a player ready for the very top clubs, Santos is still learning and developing – he’s only had a brief spell as a Premier League regular, and isn’t starting at the moment.
These links are always worrying because of what they represent, but we don’t see a clear danger on the Santos front yet.
