Chelsea loanees have continued to put in strong performances out and about in European football.
While the Blues first team were pulling out a hard-fought win against Newcastle, a number of their loanees were looking to prove that they still have a part to play in the future of the club.
Trevoh Chalobah impressed at the back for Crystal Palace as they picked up their first win of the season against Tottenham.
Fellow BlueCo owned Strasbourg enjoyed another strong outing too, with Andrey Santos proving the star of the show.
Liam Rosenior delighted with Chelsea loanee Andrey Santos
The Brazil international found the net twice as he continues to prove that it will not be long before he is making a real impact on the Chelsea first team.
Strasbourg manager Liam Rosenior has stated just how impressed he has been with Santos, and how much he has enjoyed working with him.
He said: “It’s a pleasure to work with Andrey Santos. He listens and has a great character. We worked with him this week to get him to touch the ball even more. Tonight, he was rewarded. He has a good feel for shots to be in the right place in the penalty area.”
Chelsea scouts in attendance to watch Santos
Santos was the highest rated player for his age in Europe before the last international break, and his showing yesterday will have done no harm to his statistics.
It has been reported Chelsea have had scouts in attendance to watch Santos this season, and they will have been impressed with what they’ve seen as they prepare for him to finally make the step up to first team football.
