Kenedy

Off to the Dutch league and never to return again like 90% of other youngsters who join us I see...hope he do well so we can get those profit

I so hope he proves you wrong!

I'd imagine that Jose would not accept having for than 6 players for 3 positions. Maybe Traore will be considered as a striker.

[Mechromancer 262]

Well, he's the only left-footed AM. And the only Brazilian with some fantasy.

Then that would be 4 players for 1 position

welcome to the club where if your transfer fee is not greater than 20mil, you are not worth it. so best of luck kid.

Why would they give him the number 16 if he was off out on loan?

[Mechromancer 262]

Actually, our team have five guys who can play in that position.

Costa, Remy, Falcao, Pedro and Traore.

Every time I see a signing under 20 years I feel happy and sad both at the same time.

Happy because on paper we will have a good young team, and want youngsters to succeed and become the next start player. Sad because reality strikes, we have never made good use of the wonderful young signings we have had in the past. We either loan them for long spells for the player to get frustrated and leave the club or sell to another club for pittance. Later that guy goes to rival club for record signing (yes I am hinting at KDB )

Hope he is part of the bench and plays more often than Falcao Feel really sorry for Remy (we wasted his talents, he would have been better off staying at QPR )

EDIT : Ranted on and on, totally forgot

WELCOME TO CHELSEA FOOTBALL CLUB, like everyone badly want to see you more in action in blue shirt. Wish you and club all the success in the seasons to come

Get us some goals already !!!

Edit #2: How is he in Chelsea shirt in on the club website ? Did he play for us before ?

[Jase 43,479]

except Mourinho already said he isnt going out on loan.

Would have believed that 100% if Mourinho wasn't someone who say one thing, but mean another like 3/4 of the time.

Chelsea's Brazilian contingent will offer Kenedy an easy transition and help him settle in at Stamford Bridge, but there are a couple of reasons he’s unlikely to feature straight away.

The current rules on work permits mean the 19-year-old will not be allowed to play in the Premier League, so he would have to go out on loan this season.

The Blues have a partnership with Dutch club Vitesse Arnhem so that could be a likely destination, while they have also reportedly been in talks over a similar agreement with Royal Mouscron-Peruwelz in Belgium, where Mourinho could send non-European players to develop.

Now Kenedy has made the move to Chelsea, it looks like it will be at least a year or two before he is likely to feature in Mourinho’s plans for the first team.

Kenedy has received his work permit - http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-3196645/Chelsea-sign-Brazilian-youngster-Kenedy-securing-work-permit-starlet-impressed-club-s-pre-season-tour.html

Ehm, where did you find that text? It doesn't say that in that article. It's probably true tho, atlough I highly doubt we'd send him to the Belgian league.

Sorry, posted the wrong link. Should have been this one from Sky Sports - http://www.skysports.com/football/news/21476/9847277/who-is-chelsea-signing-kenedy

I think Sky got it wrong re: work permit. Why would they give him a squad number if he didn't get given one?

[cosmicway 1,323]

Great name.

Let's see if he can make it true.

[yuvala 2,167]

[bluephoenix 1,126]
