Wolverhampton Wanderers have reportedly failed with an enquiry for 21-year-old Chelsea utility man Renato Veiga, and a winter deal will unlikely materialise.
According to a report by Give Me Sport, Renato Veiga is the subject of interest from Wolverhampton Wanderers. The Black Country outfit recently approached Chelsea over a possible move in the winter transfer window. However, the West London club shot down the enquiry, and the 21-year-old utility man will unlikely leave the Blues this month.
How has Renato Veiga fared at Chelsea?
Renato Veiga has had to bide his time since joining Chelsea from FC Basel in a deal worth £12 million in the summer transfer window. A native of Lisbon, the youngster spent his formative years in his homeland, passing through the academies at four clubs and graduating from the youth division at Sporting CP.
The 21-year-old has not been an undisputed first-choice starter for Chelsea but has been a reliable performer whenever Enzo Maresca has entrusted him with game time. Veiga has amassed over 1,000 of action across 17 appearances in all competitions, chipping in with two goals and one assist.
While the Portuguese prospect has barely featured in the Premier League, he has been a regular in the UEFA Europa Conference League and the cup competitions. Veiga has also been a utility man for Chelsea due to his ability to play as a left-back, a centre-back, and a holding midfielder. However, the lack of game time led to speculation surrounding him ahead of the winter transfer window.
Move across the Premier League on the cards?
The latest report has claimed that Wolverhampton Wanderers are keen on signing Renato Veiga from Chelsea in the winter transfer window. The Black Country outfit recently approached the West London club over a move for the young prospect. However, the Blues have turned them down.
While recent reports suggested Chelsea might be open to sanctioning a loan exit for Veiga in the winter transfer window, the player will unlikely depart from Stamford Bridge this month. So, Wolverhampton Wanderers should look elsewhere for a midfielder or a defender, with Veiga not going anywhere.
The 21-year-old Portuguese utility man will be a pivotal figure for Chelsea in the coming months as the Blues progress to the latter stages of each competition. It will be interesting to see who becomes the next top target for Wolverhampton Wanderers after failing to sign Veiga.
