the wes 7,212 Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Chelsea are looking to set up the January arrival of long-term signing Jeffrey Ntuka. Blues boss Luiz Felipe Scolari will get a first-hand look at the right-sided player who is seen as possible cover for the full back slot at Stamford Bridge. The 23-year-old South African is currently on loan at Westerlo after being ineligible for a work permit but has been promised a stint in London in a bid to earn a place in the Blues squad now he has the required paperwork. "This morning, I had a meeting with Westerlo's management and the good news is that Chelsea want to see me in January," he told Kick Off. "I need to go there and train with the first team. "Hopefully, I'll stay there because, as I said before, I now have my Belgian passport so it's a lot easier to get a work permit to play in England. "Hopefully, I will impress like I did when Jose Mourinho was still in charge." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bombayblue™ 55 Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Cos i'm pretty sure a player with Ivanovic's super hyped talent wouldn't wanna be a 4th choice CB and 2nd-3rd choice RB and has possibly hinted at wanting to leave...

riks12 3 Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 I'm sure if Ntuka joins, then we will sell either Ferreira or Ivanovic, so we could get some extra money to sign a decent winger/striker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Paulo seems to be pretty content at the Bridge, signed a new deal last term, so unless he is forced out I don't think he'd leave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kez 2,727 Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 I wouldnt like to see Paulo leave even though he dont play much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea Lad 0 Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Will just rot in the reserves and get the odd appearance in the cup and during an injury crisis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EskWeston 696 Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Well if he is good enough then fine, Ferreira is clearly not in Scolari's plans and Ivanovic is a centre back. Belletti is better in midfield. Have not seen anything of this guy but playing at Westerlo and coming to Chelsea are completely different playing levels.
