Only recently Enzo Maresca became the head coach of Chelsea London, as we already have another transfer of the Blues under his leadership.
The press service of the "pensioners" informed about the signing of 20-year-old supporting midfielder Renato Veiga from Swiss Basel. The Portuguese youth national team player has signed a contract with the London club until June 2031 with an option to extend for another year.
The amount of the transfer is not disclosed, but the portal Transfermarkt reports that Basel will receive for Veiga 14 million euros.
It is noteworthy that the young Portuguese stayed in Switzerland only for a year. He came to Basel from Sporting Lisbon, but he also has a six-month loan spell at German side Augsburg under his belt.
For the Swiss club, which rather unexpectedly took eighth place in the championship, he played 26 matches, in which he scored two goals and gave one assist.
