The Blues have signed Estevao Willian and Kendry Paez but it appears at least one of them will be in the senior squad for 2025/26 season and not shipped out on loan.
A report from GIVEMESPORT revealed: "Chelsea will not entertain the possibility of sending Estevao out on loan following his 2025 arrival.
"He is already being seen as a member of the first-team squad and can expect a healthy amount of opportunities during his first campaign in the Premier League."
The outlay also stated that his agent, Andre Cury, wanted first-team assurances amid talks with the London club over a possible move. One of his other clients, Vitor Roque, was demoted by former Barcelona boss Xavi and is ultimately out on loan at Real Betis.
Paez is another attacker who is set to join after the Blues agreed a deal with Independiente del Valle. The youngster has gained recognition since making his debut for Independiente del Valle’s senior team at just 15 years old. With both players in and with Enzo Maresca still littered with forwards.
Madueke, a player who represents pure profit, could be up for grabs. Newcastle had previously been linked with the England international but no offer was forthcoming.
Jadon Sancho, Mykhaylo Mudryk, and Pedro Neto are versatile players capable of operating on either wing, presenting Maresca with the challenging task of finding balance even before factoring in Estevao.
Similarly, Chelsea's key player Cole Palmer will play a role for Paez akin to what Madueke represents for Estevao.
