Jase 43,476 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 http://www.chelseafc.com/news/latest-news/2015/08/kenedy-signs.html Quote Chelsea Football Club is delighted to announce we have completed the signing of Kenedy from Fluminense. The 19-year-old forward arrives from his native Brazil, for whom he has played at Under-20 level. Kenedy, who will wear the No.16 shirt, said: 'I am very happy to complete my transfer to Chelsea.' The youngster played for the Blues in our pre-season friendly against Barcelona in Washington DC after Fluminense gave permission for him to take part. 'It is an exciting time for me to join the English Premier League champions and I hope I can become an important player for the club,' he added. 'I very much enjoyed my time with the squad during pre-season and I am very grateful to Fluminense for allowing me this opportunity.' Kenedy, full name Robert Kenedy Nunes do Nascimento, is a powerful left-footed attacker who can play through the centre or on either flank. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JaKstone 307 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Welcome :blue scalf:Moses and Cuadrado out i guess. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shakez 755 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Welcome, does this mean both Moses and Cuadrado are out then? Oscar, Hazard, Pedro, Willian, Kenedy seems sufficient enough to me.Edit: Forgot about Traore too lol... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LDN Blue 7,903 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Would be nice to see him play as Hazard's understudy I guess, but let's be honest. He'll go on loan to somewhere and we'll never see him again lol. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Thendo 1,088 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Seems like he'll be part of the first team since he's been given nr 16. No need to give him a number if he were of to Vitesse. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He'll go on loan to somewhere and we'll never see him again lol.Maybe but then he got a shirt number immediately. Surely that means he'll stay (at least for now)?

LDN Blue 7,903 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Maybe but then he got a shirt number immediately. Surely that means he'll stay (at least for now)?Yeah I was thinking that when I saw '16.' but I don't know. I mean he didn't do his chances any harm vs Barcelona in pre-season, so it depends on how much Mourinho's really relying on that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kellzfresh 7,211 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Get rid of Cuadrado so Kenedy can stay here Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CurlyHairLikeLuiz 1,625 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 I'd imagine that Jose would not accept having for than 6 players for 3 positions. Maybe Traore will be considered as a striker. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mechromancer 262 Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Well, he's the only left-footed AM. And the only Brazilian with some fantasy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
