The player, who has committed to move to Stamford Bridge on a seven-year deal, immediately returned to the Argentine club on loan at least until January 2025, and has continued to impress over in his homeland

Per Fabrizio Romano, the Blues have now decided to recall the 19-year-old from his loan spell after just six months. Anselmino is expected to travel to London by the end of this week and join Enzo Maresca’s squad at Cobham.

Anselmino is a wonderful talent that definitely has a big future in the game, so Chelsea have really snapped up a player that they can mould into something special and then potential sell him for alot more that the £17 million that was paid.

CHELSEA have a big few months ahead of them with all the games they will have to play, so having more talents like Anselmino to come in and add some more depth to the side will help their chances of some silverware and potential Champions League football.

It will be interesting to see how Anselmino handles the pressures of playing for a big club like Chelsea, the Premier League and being away from his family, but there are a few Argentines already at Stamford Bridge, and surely they will be able to help the lad adapt to Premier League life.
