Chelsea warn Sporting over Geovany Quenda’s situation | OneFootball

Geovany Quenda continues to follow the recovery plan in England, specifically at Chelsea's facilities, a club that has closely monitored the entire clinical process of the young Sporting winger. The Portuguese under-21 international is expected to remain in London for the coming weeks, with no set date for his return to Portugal, in a coordinated management between the technical and medical teams involved.

According to the newspaper A Bola, Chelsea has no intention of speeding up the process or skipping steps. The priority is to ensure that the player only returns to competition when he is fully recovered, avoiding risks that could jeopardize his immediate future or the next season, precisely the one in which Quenda aims to establish himself definitively at the English club.

Despite the caution conveyed to Sporting's officials, the athlete's desire is clear. At 18, Quenda is eager to return to the field, help the team, and improve this season's records. Nevertheless, the winger is aware that he cannot jeopardize his career, adopting a responsible stance aligned with the strategy defined by Chelsea.

The young international is recovering from surgery to correct a fracture in the fifth metatarsal of his right foot, an injury that has kept him out of competition since December 5, 2025. In that match, against Benfica, in the Lisbon derby, he was a substitute used by Sporting, eventually leaving shortly after due to physical problems.

The progress has been considered positive and the player himself has shared updates on social media. In one of his recent posts, Quenda is seen using an anti-gravity treadmill, equipment that reduces body weight and allows for exercises with less impact on joints and muscles, a resource increasingly used in the rehabilitation processes of high-performance athletes.

According to the same source, his return to the field is expected in the first or second week of March. Until then, it seems that the winger will continue working in England, under the close supervision of Chelsea's medical department, in a process conducted with prudence and focus on the future.
