Chelsea’s latest signing tipped to make big impact under Under Enzo Maresca
Former Blues star Frank Sinclair has opened up and claimed 23-year-old Joao Pedro can kick on and fill a gap in Enzo Maresca’s side after completing his big money move to CHELSEA this week.
The Blues have swooped to add another option to their front line with the Brazil international signing a seven-year deal at Stamford Bridge. Newcastle United were also eager to sign the 23-year-old with Pedro preferring a move to London.
Chelsea have agreed a deal worth £55m with £5m in add-ons with Brighton with Pedro departing after two seasons at the AMEX, and Sinclair has opened up and welcomed the new signing to the club.
‘I feel like he’s a player who will bring a lot of aggressiveness to Chelsea which I think they’ve missed in the front line,’ Sinclair told Metro via Kasinoseta.com.
‘Nicolas Jackson has done it, but it’s not his game and there’s an obvious place on the left wing where he can play and give the team balance, as he’s right-footed.
‘I think there will be different formations for different games, though. When they are playing teams where they feel they can control the midfield a lot easier, they might play Palmer as a No10.
‘But there might be times when they want three more combative midfielders, and then Palmer can go out to that right side.
‘But I see Joao Pedro being the one who plays on that left side – he brings pace, he scores goals, and it still allows for Jackson and Delap to have that competition for the striker role.’
