Charly Musonda could wear Eden Hazard's old shirt number at Chelsea next season Musonda was recently linked with a laughably low £5m move to Celtic, but that’s been denied by multiple sources, including one of his older brothers. The understanding for most of the summer has been that Charly will get his shot under Conte this pre-season, and this squad number assignment lends plenty of weight to that. The no.17 shirt of course belonged to fellow Belgian Eden Hazard when he first came to Chelsea before getting picked up by Pedro in 2015. It stood empty last season after Pedro switched to his more preferred no.11. ‘The coach (Conte) has a lot of confidence in him and the representatives of the club too,’ a source close to the player is quoted as saying. ‘He is in negotiations with the club and there are some details to negotiate, but in principle Charly will sign a good contract with Chelsea in the weeks to come, a deal that will show how Chelsea believes in him. Charly will play (for) Chelsea next season, not all games of course, but he will have a chance and will be part of the group. He is determined to make his debut … and he is confident that he will not leave Chelsea (in a permanent) transfer or loan.' #BlueIsTheColour #CFC #CFCFans #CFCFamily #CFCTillIDie #BPL #EPL #PremierLeague #PreSeason #CFCTour #Champions #ComeOnYouBlues #WearChelsea #PremierLeagueChampions #ChelseaFC #COYB #KTBFFH #IfItsNotBlueItWillBe #CFCArmy #TheBlues #Chelsea_KTBFFH #ChelseaFans #ChelseaKWT #CFCNews #CFCTransfers #CFCTour #AntonioConte #Conte #charlymusonda
