Brand NEW Chelsea signing Officially announces ‘he is excited’ about Stamford Bridge move
New Chelsea signing Kendry Paez says he is excited by the prospect of linking up with Enzo Fernandez at Stamford Bridge.
Since the arrival of Ted Boehly at the club last summer – the Club have been spending some serious money on some of the best young talents in the game right now.
It is clear that the American has a long-term plan at Stamford Bridge and has made sure that Chelsea have beaten off their rivals for those talents – and it seems that they have once again done it with the possible signing of Paez.
The 16-year-old insists he is keen to continue his progression in Ecuador but is looking forward to playing alongside Fernandez at the heart of Chelsea’s midfield.
‘I don’t feel pressure, I am focused on Independiente, on the Libertadores and trying to continue playing in the best way,’ Paez told ESPN SportsCenter.
‘To get there I have to keep working, be focused on learning. It will be something special to share things with players like Enzo, with other special ones.
‘It’s wonderful, but now I’m focused on Independiente del Valle. There are two years to go, I know it goes by quickly and I’ll keep doing my thing here.
‘I’m Kendry, I’m going to give the name to Ecuador. I’m going to continue being me, I don’t want to be compared to Messi. He’s very special, he’s the best. I’m 16-years-old, they cannot compare me with him, because I’m in a process.
‘I have things to improve and gain a lot of experience. Later, with time, perhaps with what I win, maybe with Kendry Paez, the Ecuadorian. It’s me and no one else.’
