"Santos is currently one of the first names on the teamsheet at Chelsea, consistently delivering world-class performances under Liam Rosenior. It's safe to say that Santos has set the benchmark for any aspiring youngster at the club that you will be given the opportunity if you perform."
"And right now, I think less likely than it was when Man United and Chelsea were negotiating over Alejandro Garnacho because at that point, Santos was not really getting game time. And now he's playing under a manager who knows him really well from Strasbourg. And as a consequence, Chelsea's not for sale stance is probably one that you would expect them to double down on heading into the summer."
"But if Chelsea brings in another midfielder, you've got Enzo Fernandez, who's been pushed forwards. If Romeo Lavia gets fit, Ree James is being played in midfield and Moises Caicedo is basically undroppable. So Chelsea do have a lot of midfielders and Manchester United's interest in Andre Santos also remain."
Andrey Santos has become a key player for Chelsea under Liam Rosenior's management, delivering consistent world-class performances after nearly leaving the club in summer. His impressive form has attracted interest from Manchester United, but Chelsea maintains a strong stance against selling him. The club views Santos as a benchmark for young players, rewarding performance with opportunities. While Manchester United's interest is confirmed, Chelsea is unlikely to sell given Santos's current importance to the team. A potential exit could only occur if Chelsea significantly strengthens their midfield, as the club already has multiple options including Enzo Fernández, Romeo Lavia, and Moisés Caicedo.
