Trabzonspor and Mechelen eye Chelsea starlet Kendry Paez on loan | OneFootball

Chelsea youngster Kendry Paez has been recalled from yet another fruitless loan.

According to journalist Juan Patricio Balbi, Chelsea are trying to organise another move after his River Plate loan was cut short.

He has offers from Trabzonspor in Turkey and Mechelen in Belgium.

Chelsea need to ensure that the 19-year-old goes somewhere he can get playing time and express himself.

Belgium is a fantastic ground for nurturing talent. It may be better suited than the fiery Turkish Super Lig.

Paez is running out of time at Chelsea

This might be a make-or-break season for Paez. The talent has never really been in doubt, but ability alone is not enough to succeed at Chelsea.

The youngster also has to take greater responsibility for his own development.

Reports of a poor attitude in training, a lack of professionalism and an active nightlife have done little to enhance his reputation over the past year.

Whether every story is accurate or not, perception matters, and Paez must give people fewer reasons to question his commitment.

His focus should be on improving every day and rediscovering the form that made him one of South America’s brightest prospects.

A successful loan starts with the right destination, but it will ultimately depend on Paez cleaning up his act, embracing discipline and letting his football do the talking again.

Chelsea also need to stop stockpiling talent and blocking their pathway, sending them on countless loans.
