Chelsea player set to sign contract extension – Blues want to make money with his sale

It looks like a matter of time until Brazilian side Atlético Mineiro extend the loan spell of Nathan from Chelsea.

The latest report about the situation comes from newspaper O Tempo, who says that Galo are only waiting for the last details to be sorted so they can confirm the renewal.

It’s also said that Nathan’s contract with Chelsea was supposed to expire next summer, but the Blues should be renewing it before loaning him out again. The reason for that is they believe they still can make money with his sale.

Earlier this week, we covered a report from Brazil which said that after extending his loan, Atlético Mineiro would be trying to buy the player.

Nathan hasn’t been training with Atlético while his situation at the club isn’t defined, so it makes sense that the Brazilian side want to get the transfer agreed as soon as possible.

It should all depend on Chelsea now.
