Chelsea Pursues Young Defender Souza from Santos

Chelsea is reportedly considering loaning out Ben Chilwell to Juventus in January as the Italian club seeks defensive reinforcements following injuries to key players. Chilwell, underutilized at Chelsea, could be available with the London club potentially covering part of his wages. Meanwhile, Chelsea is also in a competitive race with Barcelona to sign Santos' promising left-back Souza, dubbed 'the new Marcelo'. The 18-year-old has impressed in Brazil and is attracting interest from multiple clubs, including a Saudi Pro League team. Chelsea aims to bolster their squad further as they perform well in the Premier League, while discussions for Souza's long-term contract with Santos are ongoing. The club's strategy under new management focuses on securing young talents for the future.
