Chelsea are monitoring Real Betis' 19-year-old talent Jesus Rodriguez. The player has impressed this season, his first season in the Betis first team. Rodriguez plays as a left winger, and together with Brazilian Antony on the other wing they have become a dangerous attacking duo. The player is fast and very technical, and coach Pellegrini has used his skills very well. This was seen in Real Betis' impressive victory against Real Madrid in La Liga.
That is why Chelsea are keen to make the player, whose transfer fee is estimated at €42m, their own. Interest is high in Rodriguez, who is also said to have caught the eye of Liverpool. The Spaniard was part of Spain's U19 national team in their triumph at the European Championship last year.
Chelsea are continuing their efforts to bring talent from around the world to Stamford Bridge. The London Blues have been successful in their efforts to bring in players from Latin America, as they have managed to secure the signatures of Estevao Willian and Kendry Paez. At the same time, Chelsea must also secure a renewal for Jadon Sancho, to have more options in the attacking department. As for Joao Felix, the Portuguese looks set to leave at the end of the season.
Chelsea managed to win against Copenhagen in the first valid challenge for the Europa Conference League with the result 2-1. The London Blues will play the return match at home and have a good chance of qualifying for the next stage of the competition. Chelsea is considered one of the favorite teams to lift the trophy.
