Casadei: "I was really happy to be here in the second half of the season. Chelsea is my team and that was my dream, to be able to play for Chelsea. Obviously to go on loan is part of the journey, but my target was always to come back here and play for Chelsea.

They asked me if I was happy to come back and I said “yes” straight away because to come back here to Chelsea was my target. My goal was to be able to be here, to train every day in this team."

Several clubs will try to reduce his release clause (€115M), valid until June 24th. @Manchester_City is in the running for the Brazilian."
