Al Nassr have a lot of arrogance in them only wanting Angelo, get Washington, Fofana and a couple more you frauds.

Simple, they wanna flip him for profit next summer. I'd be amazed if he is still here next season.

Fair point.

My dog have we become mercenary.

Still, Hermoso would have been a great free addition, a steadying influence for the youngsters.

Chelsea Already Eyeing Move for Benfica Star Just Days After Transfer Window Shuts

https://eplindex.com/119297/report-Chelsea-already-eyeing-move-for-benfica-star-just-days-after-transfer-window-shuts.html

Chelsea’s ambitious approach to the transfer market shows no signs of slowing down, as they now set their sights on Benfica’s emerging talent, Joao Rego. According to credible reports from Record.pt, the London club’s interest in the 19-year-old has peaked following his impressive performances for Benfica’s B team.

Tracking Rising Stars

Joao Rego, with only two senior appearances for Benfica, has nonetheless made significant strides with the club’s B team. As a versatile player who can operate as an attacking midfielder or a left winger, Rego has played 28 times for the B team, scoring two goals and providing three assists. This budding talent has caught the eye of several top European clubs, but it is Chelsea who are making “constant observations and collecting positive indicators,” about the young star’s potential.

Chelsea’s Youth-Driven Strategy

Under Todd Boehly’s ownership, Chelsea has committed to a strategy of investing in youth, having spent around €1.2 billion on players, predominantly those under 23. This strategy is exemplified by the acquisition of Enzo Fernandez, another former Benfica player, who joined Chelsea for a British record fee of €121 million. Fernandez’s arrival in January 2023 after a stellar World Cup performance highlights the club’s commitment to nurturing young talent capable of competing at the highest levels.

Rego’s Future Prospects

Despite the keen interest, Chelsea have yet to make a formal offer for Rego. The young star still has four years left on his contract with Benfica, who are expected to demand a hefty sum for his services. This situation presents a complex challenge for Chelsea, as they need to weigh the potential impact on their squad against the financial outlay required to secure such a promising player.

Benfica’s Stance on Transfers

Benfica, on their part, are accustomed to nurturing young talent and are unlikely to let Rego leave without a fight. The club’s track record of developing and then selling players at a premium has been a cornerstone of their strategy. As such, any negotiations for Rego are expected to be anything but straightforward.

Our View – EPL Index Analysis

As an intrigued Chelsea fan, the prospect of acquiring Joao Rego is an exciting one. His development at Benfica mirrors that of Enzo Fernandez before his successful transition to Stamford Bridge. The potential for Rego to make a similar impact in the Premier League cannot be underestimated. Given Chelsea’s clear intent to build a young, dynamic squad, adding a talent like Rego could significantly bolster their attacking options, especially on the left wing where creativity and flair are crucial.

However, the economic implications of such a transfer during a period of heavy investment are also a concern. Chelsea has already committed considerable resources to reshaping the squad under Boehly’s direction. Fans will hope that any move for Rego is not just a speculative addition but a calculated step towards strengthening the team’s competitiveness both domestically and in Europe.

This strategy of investing in youth has indeed rejuvenated the squad but has also raised expectations. As Chelsea continues to integrate young stars, the pressure will be on these players to perform. Therefore, while the excitement around Rego’s potential signing is justified, it comes with the hope that he will quickly adapt and thrive, contributing to Chelsea’s ambitions of achieving both immediate success and long-term growth.

Should lock this thread and burn it to the ground. These rumours and actual transfer dealings are depressing as fuck.

If we are serious about his development (or upping his value), then loaning to Brazil makes no sense.

Chelsea have no plans to send their player to Brazil as they believe ‘it’s not favourable for his development’.
