Chelsea\u2019s transfer of Joao Pedro worked out, and the club will surely try to repeat the trick this summer in the market.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n If you enjoy Chelsea News coverage and want to see more of it, add us as a preferred source on Google to make us a favourite and see more of our content.<\/em><\/p>\n Joao Pedro hit his 20th goal of the season on Monday afternoon, a superb bicycle kick that he was unable to celebrate as it came in extra time of a sixth consecutive league defeat.<\/p>\n The striker then had a glum interview at full time where he explained how disappointed he and his teammates were by the club\u2019s current form.<\/p>\n After something of a slow start, the Brazilian has proved to be one of the few bright spots in this whole season. He\u2019s got 15 goals and 5 assists in the Premier League, and the club will surely be trying to replicate his signing this summer.<\/p>\n He was 23, so young enough to have upside, but had plenty of experience playing in England and in the Premier League. They paid good money, but for \u00a360m they got someone who they were pretty sure could contribute as a starter right away.<\/p>\n Why gamble on the likes of Jamie Gittens and Alejandro Garnacho when there are more established options available at the same price, already playing well in the Premier League?<\/p>\n Xavi\u2019s candidacy for the Chelsea job seems over before it really began. He\u2019s been ruled out by Ben Jacobs just hours after he was ruled in by Miguel Delaney.<\/p>\n Said El Mala looks like a serious target for Chelsea this summer, with a \u20ac50m asking price now reported by an insider.<\/p>\n DOWNLOAD THE OFFICIAL CHELSEA NEWS APP FOR ALL THE LATEST UPDATES \u2013 STRAIGHT TO YOUR PHONE!
