Chelsea's 22-year-old midfielder Andrey Santos has not yet lived up to expectations at Stamford Bridge, and with the club's ownership favoring the purchase of young talents who can be sold for a profit, it may be a good time for Chelsea to cash in on the player.
The player has attracted interest from Manchester United, who are in the market for a new midfielder this summer. With Santos's potential and the fact that he could command a higher transfer fee than Chelsea paid for him, he could be an interesting opportunity for United to consider.
Chelsea's current ownership has invested heavily in young talents in recent years with the intention of selling them for a profit later. Santos, who is still developing his skills, could be a prime candidate for sale, especially if he is not going to cement his place as a regular starter in Xabi Alonso's side.
With Manchester United already reaching an agreement to sign another player, there could be room for Santos to join the Red Devils. Another potential candidate is Brighton's Carlos Baleba, but Santos may have an even higher ceiling and could be more likely to be available for transfer.
