Report: Chelsea agree to loan out player to Premier League club on deadline day
With there being 24 hours left of the January transfer window, it looks as if Chelsea have finally sparked into life when it comes to departures.
Cesare Casadei has left the club on a permanent basis, with his move eventually being agreed to leave for Torino.
Renato Veiga has also moved on loan, while a deadline day switch for Carney Chukwuemeka has been agreed. He will be playing for Borussia Dortmund.
Ben Chilwell to be loaned from Chelsea to Crystal Palace for the rest of the season
The players moving on are ones who have not been in Enzo Maresca’s plans since he came into the club, with one of those being Ben Chilwell.
Despite being vice-captain of the club last season, the England international has not made a single Premier League appearance this campaign.
For this reason, it has been clear that the Blues have been looking to get rid of him, and now seem to have finally got their wish.
According to The Telegraph, a deal has been agreed that will see Chilwell play the remainder of the season on loan at Crystal Palace.
Even though the Blues are going to be without another left-back behind Marc Cucurella for the rest of the campaign, it was believed Chilwell would not be included into the first team setup.
Enzo Maresca a fan of Chilwell despite not playing him at Chelsea
Despite this being the case, Maresca was full of praise for Chilwell when asked about him in a recent press conference.
He said: “He has been top. I have to say that; very professional, works hard. I feel shame because of that situation but in terms of behaviour, he has been very good.”
Given how Raheem Sterling dealt with his exclusion from the first team squad, it has to be commended how there has been no noise from Chilwell’s camp about his situation.
Despite it only being a loan deal for the left-back, it still feels as if his long-term future is away from Stamford Bridge.
