Andrey Santos
21-Year-Old
Chelsea
Premier
Scores header in FA Cup
Santos scored one goal and created two chances in Saturday's 7-0 FA Cup quarterfinal win over Port Vale.
ANALYSIS
Santos scored Chelsea's fifth goal in the 69th minute, crashing the back post to head home Estevao's corner after the opposing goalkeeper's run was cut off by his own teammate, giving the Brazilian his first goal since returning to his former club. He also helped dictate the pace next to Romeo Lavia in the double pivot, floating a first-time ball over Port Vale's back line to tee up Joao Pedro's goal in the 25th minute, and he ended his 90-minute shift with one goal and two chances created. Santos is expected to take on a bigger role until Enzo Fernandez returns from a club suspension.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Candidate to leave Chelsea
Santos could leave Chelsea in the summer, according to CaughtOffside.
ANALYSIS
Santos has had some good moments at Chelsea, but it seems the Blues don't rate him highly enough to see him as a long-term building block. Manchester United, Inter Milan, Juventus and West Ham are some of the clubs that could be interested in moving for the 21-year-old Brazilian if he becomes available.
