Why Chelsea have recalled midfielder Cesare Casadei from Leicester loan as Mauricio Pochettino makes big call - explained

Premier League

Leicester

Casadei is heading back to Chelsea after the Blues confirmed the midfielder has been brought back from a loan at Leicester, where he made 25 appearances and scored three goals. The 21-year-old will now start training with the Blues squad and will hope to be involved in the second half of the season for Pochettino's side.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Casadei has clearly done enough at Leicester to convince Pochettino he can play a part in Chelsea's season. The Blues are said to believe Casadei has "huge potential" and can "help the squad with immediate effect," according to <a href="https://twitter.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1748630694459568543" target="_blank">Fabrizio Romano</a>. Casadei has not yet made his senior debut for Chelsea since signing for the club from Inter in 2022. He faces a battle for minutes too, with the likes of Enzo Fernandez, Conor Gallagher and Moises Caicedo around.
