Even though Chelsea are still to take a decision on whether to loan Andrey Santos or not, it seems there are already clubs moving for his signing.
That’s the case of Palmeiras, who, according to journalist Jorge Nicola, are very interested in landing the midfielder.
As widely reported in the past few days, Andrey Santos is still to be granted a work permit, and Chelsea may not be able to use him in these first months after his arrival.
This new report claims that in case it’s confirmed the visa won’t be given now, then he’s set to be loaned to a club who are playing the Copa Libertadores.
Due to his respect for his former club Vasco da Gama, then their local rivals Flamengo are ruled out. And that’s why Palmeiras have an advantage.
However, we must point out there’s still a chance Andrey Santos will be granted the visa following his participation in the U-20 South American Championship.
Recent claims from Brazil says it’s 99% certain he’ll get that after the end of the tournament this month.
