Chelsea Unearth a Gem
Despite criticism of Chelsea's recent transfer policy, the club may have found a gem in 16-year-old Kendry Paez. Signed from Independiente del Valle for £17 million, Paez is seen as one for the future and won't make his Chelsea debut until 2025.
Ready for the Big Time
Seasoned pros Federico Valverde and Manuel Ugarte believe Paez is ready for the big time. The Ecuador wonderkid, who has been compared to Lionel Messi, put on a sensational display in a World Cup qualifier against Uruguay, setting up the winning goal.
The Youngest Assist Maker in South America
Paez has made history as the youngest assist maker in South American football, surpassing a record held by Pele. His performance in the World Cup qualifier has solidified his place as the next big thing in football.
From Ecuador to Europe
Paez began his career in Ecuador and impressed scouts from top European clubs at a young age. He has made a name for himself in South American football and is highly regarded for his skills and talent.
A Dream Debut
Last season, Paez made a long-anticipated debut for Independiente at just 15 years old. He became the youngest player to appear in Ecuador's top flight and scored a memorable goal, earning him praise from his coach.
International Stardom
Paez showcased his talent on the international stage, making his debut for Ecuador at 16 years old. He played with maturity and skill, impressing fans and teammates alike. His assist and performance in the game set new records and confirmed his status as a rising star.
Joining Forces with Moises Caicedo
Paez will have the opportunity to play alongside fellow Ecuadorian Moises Caicedo at Chelsea. Their partnership could be one to watch in the future, as both players continue to develop their skills and make a mark on the football world.
