As he prepares for the 2026 World Cup with Roberto Martinez’s Portugal, Veiga wants to play in the first team.

He is anticipated to get the opportunity to play in Serie A in his favored position at center back but it is estimated that Chelsea will get a substantial fee on the simple loan of about £4 million.

Chelsea loses a midfield option at a time when they are at a loss due to injuries to Romeo Lavia and Enzo Fernandez.

Moises Caicedo and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall started their most recent game, a 3-1 victory over Wolves, with no midfielders on the bench.

Amid the injury problems, the Blues are currently thinking about how to bolster that area for Enzo Maresca, reports Mail Online.

They currently have two on loan at clubs, Lesley Ugochukwu at Southampton and Andrey Santos at Strasbourg, but have been reluctant to recall either.

Veiga has remained on the outside of the first squad after joining Chelsea from Basel in the summer for £12 million.
