One Chelsea midfielder has incredible become the top goal-scorer across all five of the top leagues in Europe so far this season, according to WhoScored.com

The thing is, although said player is registered as a Chelsea player, he hasn’t even played for Chelsea for the last two season having been out on loan.

Sources: The one key element Chelsea have changed in recruitment specifics that has benefited them massively.

We are of course speaking about Andrey Santos who is currently out on loan with Strasbourg again after being there last season.

Santos has really grown as a player in the last two seasons and he has become essential for Strasbourg and a regular cog in their midfield.

He has it all about his game, but it isn’t just the defensive side where he is a real asset. He can also be a real threat in attack as well, coming up with goals and assists.

Santos has been great

WhoScored.com report that no central midfielder has scored more goals than Andrey Santos in Europe’s top five leagues this season (3).

It’s incredible for such a young player to get that record so far this season, showing that he clearly has a real eye for a goal as well as a lot of quality on the ball.

Santos is also largely a defensive midfielder, which makes the goal scoring record even more impressive.

You wonder what the future holds for him at Chelsea and where he can even get in this current squad with the likes of Moises Caicedo, Enzo Fernandez, and Romeo Lavia ahead of him there right now.
