Chelsea has officially announced the loan departure of 19-year-old striker Deivid Washington back to Santos after an unfruitful stint at Stamford Bridge. Washington, who joined Chelsea in 2023, struggled to secure regular playing time, making only three brief appearances for the senior team. The club had anticipated this move for weeks, leaving an overseas loan spot open. Santos will retain the option to acquire Washington permanently after the loan ends on December 31, 2025. The arrangement does not involve a loan fee, with Santos covering his salary during the loan period.
