Chelsea confident of an agreement with the Sporting CP wonderkid!
This approach comes with lessons from last year when Dortmund brought in Ian Maatsen on a six-month loan from Chelsea. The Dutchman impressed during his time at the Westfalenstadion, helping the team reach the Champions League final, where they lost to Real Madrid.
However, with no purchase option in his contract, Dortmund missed out on the opportunity Aston Villa swooped in to sign him how his value jumped under the leadership of Edin Terzić.
This experience could prove crucial for Dortmund as they negotiate with Chelsea, nurturing an old relationship with the west London club. It is believed they could try to secure a deal that includes a clear path towards making Veiga’s move permanent.
The defender arrived from Basel in the summer and has since made 11 starts and six substitute appearances for Chelsea.
Blues head coach Enzo Maresca last picked him in the starting 11 last month in the Conference League against Shamrock Rovers. However, clearly unimpressed by the display, he has not been selected since.
Bournemouth have previously been linked with the youngster, but since they already have Chelsea’s Kepa Arrizabalaga on loan in the side, any move for Veiga should be permanent rather than a loan.
Chelsea only signed Veiga around six months ago, but they are now ready to let him leave Stamford Bridge on loan, it is believed. What is not clear is what they want in return and how much they would ask to make any deal permanent.
