Chelsea loanee Andrey Santos is set to return to Stamford Bridge in June, with the club planning to integrate him into the first-team squad for next season, according to Uriel Lugt.

The Brazilian midfielder, currently on loan at Strasbourg, has impressed with his performances, scoring eight goals and providing two assists in 23 matches this season. Chelsea view him as a key part of their future and are committed to his development within the squad.

Despite reported interest from Bayern Munich, the Blues have no intention of selling the highly-rated youngster. 

With Transfermarkt valuing Santos at €25 million, his return to Chelsea signals the club’s long-term vision of strengthening their midfield with young talent.
