Luiz Suarez message to Chelsea after UCL victory, as agent confirms Chelsea player will leave club this summer
Chelsea definitely do well with the underdog status, and the Blues have won two Champions League titles despite not being touted as one of the favourites.
From the knockout stages to the final, Chelsea were rated as the least favourite, but the Blues went on to defy the odds and lift the Champions League trophy.
Meanwhile, Atletico Madrid striker Luis Suarez is aiming to win the Champions League with the Madrid side, after being crowned as La Liga champions.
Suarez pointed out to Chelsea as an example as he claimed that everyone wanted to face Chelsea because they were weak.
“The ambition does not have to stop and why not dream of having that possibility of entering the club’s history and winning a European Cup,” said Suarez.
“It would be something incredible, something unique. The teams and the possibilities are not marked by anyone before each season, whether one or the other is a favourite.
“Look at Chelsea, whom everyone wanted to face because they saw them as weak and they ended up winning the Champions League.”
agent confirms Emerson Palmieri will leave club this summer
Chelsea left-back Emerson Palmieri will be glad to have been part of the Chelsea squad that won the Champions League, in what was an eventful season that saw two managers lead the club.
The Italy international has found himself move back and forth as second and third choice left-back over the course of the season.
Emerson still remains a key player for the Italy national team and has the quality to play for a top team.
The 26-year-old’s agent Fernando Malta has confirmed that his client would be open to leaving Chelsea this summer despite his “good relationship” with manager Thomas Tuchel, and hinted that so many top clubs are after his signature.
“Because of his connection with the national team, he has often been approached by important clubs such as Juventus, Inter [Milan] and Napoli,” the agent told Calciomercato.it.
“When a market window starts, there are always rumours about him.
“Now, Emerson has to focus on the national team.
“This season with Chelsea has been very special. There was a change of coach and he has a great relationship with Tuchel.
“Now, we need to understand what will be the next steps for Chelsea and what will be his future in the next season. “He had a period in Serie A where he made the leap in terms of quality.
“If all the conditions were there, if there was the ideal scenario, he would be happy.
“Obviously, as an agency, we don’t just focus there. Emerson has attracted attention from other leagues and other big European teams.”
