What Jadon Sancho can do for Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest that has been done only twice in English football
Of all the new signings made by Chelsea over the summer, one player in particular has had a great impact on his new side.
Jadon Sancho was brought in on deadline day on loan from Manchester United, however it already looks as if that deal will be permanent at the end of the campaign.
The England international has forced himself into the starting side for Premier League games ahead of the likes of Pedro Neto and Mykhailo Mudryk, and he has repaid that faith in him from manager Enzo Maresca.
Sancho has contributed an assist in every game he has played so far, with him also winning a penalty in the 4-2 victory over Brighton.
There seems to be an expectation for him to provide for a goal in every game he plays right now, although it would go down in the history books if he adds another assist to his tally today against Nottingham Forest.
Sancho could tie assist record for new club
According to BBC Sport, Sancho could become just the third player since records began to register an assist in his first four games for a new club.
One of the other two also occurred at Chelsea, with Cesc Fabregas impressing greatly after he joined the club.
It is thought by many that Sancho is enjoying his football a lot more since he made the move from Old Trafford.
Enzo Maresca thrilled to have Sancho
Maresca said when the Blues signed him that he certainly had an idea on how to get the best out of him, and this has proven to be the case up to now.
Everyone was more than aware of the talent the winger possessed, although Erik ten Hag and co at Manchester United seemed to do their best to not get the best out of him.
He will no doubt be keen to carry on his good start to the season when Forest come to West London later today.
