Renato Veiga Leaves Chelsea for Juventus Loan Deal Until Season’s End
Juventus and Chelsea have finalized a loan deal for Renato Veiga, a highly versatile defender who will join the Italian side until the end of the season. The agreement, which was confirmed by transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, ensures Veiga gets the consistent playing time he has been seeking.
At just 21, Veiga had attracted interest from multiple European clubs, but he opted for a move to Turin to focus on developing his game as a center-back.
The Portuguese defender had expressed his desire to the Chelsea hierarchy for a loan move to gain regular minutes in his preferred position, and the club has now granted his wish. Juventus will pay Chelsea a €5 million loan fee for Veiga, who is expected to return to Stamford Bridge once the season concludes.
Enzo Maresca, Chelsea’s head coach, has been an admirer of Veiga’s flexibility and potential since the defender’s arrival from FC Basel during the summer transfer window. Veiga was signed for £12 million and has since demonstrated his ability to adapt quickly to the demands of top-flight football.
Maresca, however, understands the value of Veiga gaining experience in Serie A, where he will face new challenges and sharpen his defensive skills.
Former Manchester United player, Jesse Lingard, has revealed that he has mutually agreed to leave FC Seoul and his contract will end. It is reported that he will leave next week.
It can be noted that the footballer joined in February 2024 and has made 66 appearances since then, scoring 18 goals.
The player shared his experience on social media, saying “My time in South Korea has been unbelievable — the football, the atmosphere, and the passion around this club have been top class.”
“The love, support, and appreciation you have shown towards me over these last two years has been truly amazing. I’ll always be grateful for the opportunity to play for such a massive club.”
Former footballer, Rio Ferdinand compares Arsenal star player, Bukayo Saka, to Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah.
When comparing players, he shared that: “When Saka is on it, he looks unplayable,” however he also stated that even with Salah’s stature, he is strong.
He has got the strength like Mohamed Salah. He is small in frame and size when you look at him, but do you ever see him get pushed off the ball?
“You don’t really see people take the ball off him or put him on his arse. He is a strong little guy.”
Former Chelsea player Frank Leboeuf speaks on recent league matches and names two clubs that can really challenge Arsenal this season, Manchester City and Chelsea.
During a recent interview when speaking about Arsenal, he shared “They are still the big favourites [for the title], but they will have to prove it. They lost four points against Sunderland and Chelsea. Manchester City are back, Chelsea are still there.”
“We will have the winter period, which will start very soon, so let’s see,” he said.
