Kenedy has been at Chelsea for more than 5 years now, and has not looked like becoming a first team option for the Blues for most of them.
Constantly linked with moves away, he always ends up going on loan in the end, and a year later we return to the same issue of where to send him permanently.
Recently a return to his native Brazil to join Flamengo had been mooted, but the latest news reported by CaughtOffside slightly deflates that idea.
They report on quotes from UOL Esporte in the South American nation where sporting director Bruno Spindel explained why it would be tricky to get their man:
“Kenedy is a very interesting player. Flamengo is talking. It is also challenging. He is from Chelsea; he is an interesting player who has had a great season,” Spindel explained.
“Now, it is a complicated negotiation for a player who was transferred for a fee very high for Chelsea. We want to count on him, but again, due to the financial situation, the value of the euro, everything that happened, we see it as a difficult situation,” he went on.
Unless Chelsea are seriously willing to lower their offer, we can’t see this one happening just yet.
We still need him in the first term,please
