Tottenham, Arsenal, Bayern Munich and PSG are all interested in Chelsea’s Kenedy, who is on loan at Newcastle.
ESPN Brasil have claimed Arsenal have contacted Chelsea over a move for Brazilian winger Kenedy, as he continues to shine on loan at Newcastle United.
The report claims Arsene Wenger’s side have made an enquiry for the 22-year-old Brazilian, with PSG and Bayern Munich are also said to be keen. According to the Northern Echo, Tottenham Hotspur are also keen.
Kenedy was given next to nothing at Stamford Bridge by Antonio Conte and has been shipped out on loan to St. James’ Park, where he has become the Toon’s savior in a fight against the drop.
His form has been so good that he has proved an integral part in pushing the Toon into 10th place, well beyond expectations after scoring two goals and providing two assists in eight league games.
Given the freedom to shine with the Magpies, Kenedy has shown his real talent rather than being restricted by Conte and it has alerted some of Europe’s best sides.
But it seems as though Arsenal are attempting to steal a march on their rivals by approaching London rivals Chelsea over the availability of the Newcastle loanee.
The two-time Brazil Under-23 international has two years remaining on his current contract at Stamford Bridge.
