Bertrand Traoré

[didierforever 7,349]

Chalobah should be on loan sooner rather than later... I doubt he'll be part of the youth CL team.

i think we are trying to make him eligible as a club trained player due to UCL regulations. same with ake. i think thats good.

*Assuming he gets his work permit*

But yeah, you're right, it won't be easy.

I think he has to be a regular with his NT for two years to get it. Don't think they will make it to the WC this year, but they'll most likely make the AFCONs next year. There's no rush, anyway. We'll probably loan him out to Vitesse.

any news on this front? was hoping for a done deal by the time I woke up this morning

[ja1 1,166]

He is currently with Burkina Faso on international duty, so may have to wait a few days for news.

[mac.bo 48]

Looked super in pre season hope news comes soon of him joining CFC ranks

[bluesman2610 1,226]

still nothing concrete on this front.. which is very sad maybe we have to wait until january to sign him up

[didierforever 7,349]

nothing on this guy yet??

[bluesman2610 1,226]

I was wondering the same thing.. I thought it would have been a done deal after the international break.. Maybe we have to wait until January

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Probably done but the club has not announced it. It's not like we announce everything.

Steve Atkins says Chelsea are confident of signing Bertrand Traore to a professional deal but it may be January before things are sorted.

This is what I have been saying I figured we would have to wait until the next window opens

[kellzfresh 7,226]

damn, so he's not playing any football till january??

[Pizy 17,860]

Sounds more to me like he's considering is options but that he's favoring staying with us. Wouldn't be surprised if the likes of Real Madrid are sniffing around.

That was always going to be the case since he doesn't have a lisence to play in England and he can't be loaned out outside it before Jan.

He's officially ours. Question is will he be able to stay in England.

Question is will he be able to stay in England.

The problem is the work permit?
