Pablo Barrios, Atlético de Madrid’s young midfielder is now a player that CHELSEA are reportedly interested in signing when the January transfer window opens up in just a few weeks time.

Enzo Maresca has come into Chelsea and done a pretty good job at the club as he looks to build a side that is capable of challenging for a Champions League place, and then a Premier League title in the next couple of seasons.

The Blues have one of the biggest squads in word football right now and have a number of players that have not even seen much game time this season, but that has not stopped speculation in the media that the board are looking at their next transfer signing, and are reportedly ready to raid Atletico Madrid.

What is the latest.

Barrios has emerged as one of the great promises of Spanish football. At just 21 years old, the academy player has shown quality, vision and a maturity on the pitch that has captured the attention of top-level teams in Europe, including Chelsea according to Fichajes

The report claims that Chelsea are willing to make a move with an offer of around 50 million euros to get the services of the Madrid player, although he has shown no real desire to leave the Spanish giants.

The lad is talented and showing great potential at Madrid, but why would he want to leave at this stage of his career when he is playing for a big club in one of the best Leagues in the world.

If CHELSEA are prepared to offer crazy money in order to get a transfer deal done, then fair enough, but the lad is not really needed at the Blues and would struggle to make any sort of impact.

For the sake of the lads career, he needs to stay put, but if the money is there, Madrid will take it

ENDRICK GREEN LIGHT?

Brazilian wonderkid Endrick is once again being linked with a loan move away from Real Madrid, as CHELSEA, Tottenham and Juventus are credited with interest in a possible loan deal during the January transfer window.

Enzo Maresca has come into Chelsea and done a pretty good job at the club as he looks to build a side that is capable of challenging for a Champions League place, and then a Premier League title in the next couple of seasons.

The Blues have one of the biggest squads in word football right now and have a number of players that have not even seen much game time this season, but that has not stopped speculation in the media that the board are looking at their next transfer signing.

What is the latest on Endrick?

Endrick has played just 39 minutes of La Liga football this season, through seven substitute appearances, and has two goals to his name across all competitions. Talk of the youngster leaving in January has previously been played down, but Real are said to be reconsidering their options.

According to Fichajes, Endrick could be on the move early in 2025. With Real eager to find him regular game time, a loan switch elsewhere may be sanctioned and CHELSEA are seriously interested in the lad.

The Blues were one of the clubs that were very interested in signing Endrick during the time when he was back in Brazil, and only missed out because Madrid were the lads dream.

The lad joined one of the biggest clubs in the world with one of the best attacks, he was never going to get much game time this season as Carlo Ancelotti needs to win 99 per cent of the games.

It may have been a big mistake making that move to Madrid at this stage of his career, but if he is loaned out, he needs to join a club that is playing at a high level and will play him on a weekly basis.

If CHELSEA get him on loan, he would probably spend alot of time on the bench,

MARESCA DROPS SANTOS HINT –

After signing the Brazilian teenager in a couple of January windows ago from Vasco da Gama, he joined up with his Chelsea teammates last summer and impressed during the club’s pre-season tour of the United States.

CHELSEA made the big decision in the summer window to allow Santos to make the move to Forest for the season in hope that he would get some game time to adapt to the English game.

But The 19-year-old midfielder was only used twice by Forest in all competitions since moving to the City Ground in the summer, and when the most recent January window opened up – he was shipped out to Strasbourg.

He is back at the French side once again after Chelsea made the decision to let him leave once again, The young Brazilian midfielder is yet to make an appearance for the Blues since officially signing for the club in January 2023.

Now Maresca has opened up and suggested that Santos could be part of his plans at Stamford Bridge after the Brazilian started the new season in exciting fashion, Speaking to reporters the Italian coach said, “Andrey Santos shows what we have said already many times, probably for some players, it is better they go and prove themselves and then they can come back.

‘Now is too early but if he continues in the way he is playing, then he could be an option for us.”

Santos is a very talented young man that did not need to come to Europe at this stage of his career, he is far too young and is was too big of a decision to leave his homeland.

He needs to be playing – so hopefully at Strasbourg he will get some more game time and it will help his development. But one thing is for sure – he probably did not expect to be sent all over Europe when he made the decision to join CHELSEA.

He is also probably considering whether Chelsea is the right place for him to be at this stage of his career
