Geovany Quenda | Ornstein: Chelsea agree 7-year deal with option of a further year. Will go to Chelsea in 2026.

This seemed wrapped up and done. Can't help but think this was sporting getting their own back for taking amorim in the middle of their season.

It was done very quickly. Maybe it will send a shock to United. But it was because 1) Chelsea were willing to wait until 2026, so makes you wonder how desperate or confident is the player to play in the top 2 leagues. 2) Chelsea offered to play him as wide forward.

Not a deal I blame anyone for use losing. Only thing Chelsea have so many wingers. They already have two of South Americas most promising coming in the summer.

Looks good on paper. But becoming an unbalanced squad.

This is just a better deal for Sporting I think. They get a big transfer fee (Presumably around what we would have paid as well) and they get to keep the player for another season. It's as good a deal as they could have gotten, and I am sure we (rightfully) would not have let him stay there another season. Doesn't seem like there's any malice in it.

I am sure Chelsea will be happy to sell them both to us for 50m EUR end of next season.

Hopefully they both flop at Chelsea

Perhaps Amorim doesn't think they are what we need. He will surely know them well.

Done deal.
