According to reports, Andrey Santos will soon have a chance to play in the Premier League after Nottingham Forest reassured Chelsea of this.
Since coming from the Blues in the summer, the midfielder who is now on loan has made one appearance for the Reds. When the team lost to Burnley in the Carabao Cup in August, he made just one start and played nearly the entire match.
Chelsea supporters have taken to social media to express their ire at his lack of playing time. According to sources, the club is debating whether to recall the 19-year-old in January.
What I misunderstood about the ‘risky’ call that showed Reds possess a wealth of talent.
Why a striker might be Forest’s main priority in the January transfer market
According to Give Me Sport, Stamford Bridge has not yet made a final choice. Finding Santos a new loan for the second half of the season, though, is reported to be a possibility “if things do not improve” – even if Chelsea is claimed to have been given the assurance that “opportunities are coming”.
According to the article, “there is some regret” over the Brazilian’s decision to transfer on a loan. One of the teams interested in signing him was Porto, but the player preferred to play for a Premier League team to aid in his transition to English football.
Santos has been good, according to Forest head coach Steve Cooper, despite rumors surrounding his future. He is undoubtedly a very talented young player. I had a great conversation about him with Chelsea. I had no idea that he had been the subject of some writing.
