Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino is set to shake things up at Stamford Bridge by inviting 16-year-old wonderkid Kendry Paez to join the first-team training. This move comes two years before Paez can officially complete his £17.5 million transfer to the Blues.

Excitement builds as fellow players rave about Paez

Moises Caicedo, Chelsea's record signing, is among those who are already praising the young Ecuadorian talent. Paez, who has already earned five senior caps, has caught the attention of his future teammates.

Impatient wait for formal signing

Although Paez has agreed to join Chelsea, he can't formally sign the contract with Independiente Del Valle until he turns 18.

Arrival in London and training at Cobham

Paez is expected to arrive in London next week and will begin training at Chelsea's Cobham training ground in Surrey. This will be the first of several visits aimed at helping the teenager adjust to life in the UK.

Caicedo recognizes Paez's potential

Chelsea's £115 million midfielder, Moises Caicedo, first spotted Paez's immense potential when the 22-year-old was playing for Brighton. Caicedo praised Paez's talent and expressed his excitement for the young Ecuadorian's future.

Paez thrilled to join South American players at Stamford Bridge

Paez himself is ecstatic about the opportunity to join other South American players at Chelsea. He is focused on his current club, Independiente, and is determined to continue playing at his best until he officially joins the Blues in two years.
