Charly Musonda’s deal with Celtic ruled out

Amid rumours that Belgian youngster Charly Musonda, his brother Lamisha Musonda has denied reports linking him to Celtic Park.

The 20-year-old has spent five years as a Chelsea player but has yet to make an appearance for the first-team, a familiar story with a lot of the Chelsea youngsters.

Instead, last season he was out on loan with Spanish side Real Betis and impressed during his time there.

However, because Musonda is predominately a winger, he will be sure to find breaking into Chelsea’s first-team very hard with the competition being the likes of Eden Hazard, Willian and Pedro who scored a combined total of 33 goals in the Premier League alone last season.

Although Musonda certainly has age on his side, only being 20, he has a bright future ahead of him and it appears he will stay at Chelsea to fight for a place in the side, according to his brother anyway.

He says that: “Celtic’s interest is flattering but Charly’s a Chelsea player and is focused on Chelsea.”

Whether Musonda will move is not yet certain but its known that Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers is very keen of the Belgian man; “He is young but is a big talent who has got experience.”
