CHELSEA midfielder Alex Matos will spend the remainder of the season on loan at Championship side Oxford United, the Blues have confirmed on the club website this weekend.
The Blues posted on the club website: ‘Matos joined the Blues from Norwich City in the summer of 2023 and made his first-team debut as a substitute against Fulham the following October.
‘The 20-year-old spent the second half of last season on loan at Huddersfield Town, where he made 20 appearances, and returns to the English second tier to continue his development.
‘Good luck, Alex!’
Ed Waldron, Head of Oxford Football Operations, said: “Alex’s talent has been evident since his time with Norwich City, and watching him develop at Huddersfield Town last season showcased he is ready to compete at this level.
“We have built a strong relationship with Chelsea over the last few years, and we have developed a reputation over that time as a place where talented young players can flourish.
“To have the opportunity for Alex to continue his development here showcases the trust that CHELSEA and other Premier League clubs hold in Oxford United, which is fantastic as we benefit in bringing a top professional and quality player into our building. Now, we look forward to watching his progress across the season.”

Matos is very talented but with all that quality that Chelsea have in the attack under Enzo Maresca, he will never get the chance to prove himself in the coming seasons, it will not be possible.
This loan move is perfect for the lad because if he impresses, he may impress a number of clubs to maybe get a permanent move away from the Blues, because as we just said, he may not get the chance in that Chelsea first team
