Juventus is set to sign Chelsea defender Renato Veiga on a loan deal until the season's end, covering his wages and paying a loan fee of 3.8m. Despite his recent move to Chelsea for 11.8m, Veiga faced frustration at his role in left-back, as he prefers playing centre-back. With an ambition to remain in the Portugal squad for the 2026 World Cup, this opportunity in Italy is seen as beneficial. Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca had previously urged Veiga to accept diverse roles for more playtime, yet Veiga’s limited appearances reinforced his decision to move.
"If there is a player who just wants to play in one position, they're going to struggle," said Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca, highlighting Veiga's positional frustrations.
Juventus has agreed to cover Renato Veiga's wages and pay a 3.8m loan fee, aiming for him to gain more playing time in Italy.
