Wallace

[enigma]

Apparently, he is coming in the summer. The deal has been agreed and everything. Does anyone know much about the guy? 

[Jezz]

I don't know too much about him, but his name is Wallace and he's only 18, but he'll turn 19 in May. At the moment he's playing for Fluminense as a right-back and he's represented Brazil's under 17s team on 13 occasions and now he's been representing Brazil's under 20s team. He's made two appearances with them so far.

Sorry I can't find any more info on him. He's a bit of an unknown to me personally. 

[Jonty]

Someone posted a vid a while back of him scoring a pretty cool goal, but yeah his name is Wallace and represents Brazil at junior levels.

 

If he ends up as good as Rafael it's a good bit of business.

If you're on twitter, you can ask @Cynegeticus about him or any other Latin American players.

[Charles Ryder]

Thanks for the tip.

It will be interesting to see if he is a part of the squad for next season, possibly Ferreria's successor if he is released by the club?

[Uno]

I would think he will be loaned out to that Dutch team we loan our players to.

[Teritus]

Vitesse? If I'm not mistaken they're already using Kalas and van Aanholt as their full backs.

[Uno]

Yeah thats the team. They have Kakuta on loan as well.

[Teritus]

Maybe, if Kalas is put back to centre back. We'll have to wait and see.

As long as he hasnt got his terrible weakness, a massive blind spot to anyone behind him.

[Charles Ryder]

If his defensive acumen is poor then I can't see him getting anywhere near the first team, he'll be farmed out on loan for at least a few seasons.

[stamford_blue]

Apparently he has not been getting much playing time recently. The brazilian club dont want to waste playing minutes and development resources on a player they have already sold.

[jack_super_class]

What about loaning this guy to Leverkusen as part of the Schurrle deal? They just sold Carvajal to Real Madrid and have been linked with Montoya of Barca so they need a new RB.

[MoJames]

I'll phone Jose.

[jack_super_class]

I'll phone Jose.

 

Thanks.

Wallace has joined up with the first team squad for pre-season training.

 

What do fellow Shed Enders think, will he be sent on loan or will he stay at the club at compete with Dave for the RB slot.

 

He looks fairly stocky considering his age so he might be ready for the physicality of the Premier League.

 

I did see a rumour about him maybe joining Roma on loan for the season, if that helped us secure De Rossi I wouldn't complain.

I'd like to see him go on loan preferably to an English team, although I'm not sure anyone would be interested. 

 

Dave had a great first season and I think he will only improve more under Jose. We have Ivano and Essien who can also play RB if needed. Also we have Kalas though I doubt he will be staying at Chelsea next season. 

[Zola]

William Wallace?

[ForeverCarefree]

William Wallace?

 

Not quite....

 

[Uno]

I think he will get some game time pre season and then Jose will make a choice but i would bet he will go on loan somewhere.

[timetowaste]

I think it's probable that he will go out on loan this season and we'll just have Ivanovic if Dave gets injured.

[Uno]

And Essien

[mad_mac]

Yep, with Dave, Ivan and Essien all able to fill the RB spot, I think we'll see him go on loan.  If it's to Roma to make way as part of the De Rossi deal, then I think I could handle that.

 

Where does this leave Kane at the end of his loan though?

[Uno]

Out the door! Never really rated Kane tbh. Do you remember that guy on here that claimed he had Kane living with him and said that Lukaku was the joke of the training ground because he was so sh*t and he would never amount to much. Where is that guy now? I wonder if he watched Lukaku last season at all.
