The Chelsea midfielder is likely to have a breakthrough in the first team under Mauricio Pochettino next season
Chelsea is currently facing two situations at the same time. First, they desperately need a central midfielder to fill the void left by the departures of Jorginho, N'Golo Kante, Mateo Kovacic and Ruben Loftus-Cheek on their side. Potential names like Romeo Lavia and Moises Caicedo were mentioned.
On the other hand, Chelsea already have three very talented players in similar positions and of the same age in their ranks. Cesare Casadei is playing very well at the world U20 tournament in Argentina. Andrey Santos won the cup for Brazil and Carney Chukwuemeka was considered one of England's best young central midfielders before joining Chelsea last summer.
Although Pochettino is unlikely to stop the club from signing a new midfielder, it is hoped that at least one of these players will be included in the first team next season to fill the void. .
Given that Chukwuemeka has spent a year with limited opportunities at the club, he will most likely be a loan player to ensure he has enough game time over the next 12 months.
It looks like Santos is emerging as a strong contender, offering experience, talent and a solid defensive play that can significantly improve the team's vulnerable areas.

Erik Ten Hag and most of the Man Utd squad are said to be very interested in the return of Mason Greenwood with the final decision to be made by the Glazer family within the next 7 days.
Suspended Mason Greenwood will be greeted by Erik Ten Hag and 'most' of his Manchester United teammates with an imminent decision.
The 21-year-old is currently suspended following charges of rape, assault and controlling and coercive conduct, brought in January 2022.
While United are continuing their own investigation into the matters, a decision has yet to be made on Greenwood's future.
Given the nature of the allegations against him, a return to United seems highly unlikely. However, a report from The Sun claims manager Ten Hag and "most" of Greenwood's teammates would welcome the decision. The Dutchman has previously said that Greenwood has 'scored in the past' for United.
The Sun added that any decision on the player's future would rest with the club's American owners, the Glazers, and a decision could be made within the next week. There are concerns about the backlash - particularly with trade and sponsorship deals - that Greenwood's reinstatement will cause.
Indeed, it was revealed last month that the decision would be heavily influenced by the opinions of the club's stakeholders. United's women's team has previously expressed concern about the striker's potential return. Greenwood, according to The Sun, is eager for the club to make a decision, ending a saga that has spanned more than 18 weeks, and will be "delighted" if part of the team and Ten Hag welcome him. backside.
Rumors of a potential loan to Spain, Italy or Türkiye surfaced on Thursday. United have yet to make a public statement about Greenwood since they 'recognized' the charges were dropped earlier in the year.
