This one has been bubbling for a while and now it seems done and dusted as the player himself has been quoted as saying that he’s moving clubs.

Danilo Pantic, the 18 year old Partisan Belgrade star, has said that he will move to Chelsea’s feeder club Vitesse Arnhem on loan before what he hopes will be a long and successful career at Stamford Bridge.

The Metro reports:

Danilo Pantic confirms he’s completed Chelsea transfer move

..and they quote the youngster as saying:

‘As an 18-year-old it’s hard to get a chance at Chelsea straight away,’

‘I already know a lot about Vitesse. It’s a big club where many young players play and games will be played offensively.

‘If I play well at Vitesse, then I will go back to Chelsea.’

The report concludes that Chelsea will pay about £1.25m for the services of the player.

Pantic has only played 18 times in the league for Partizan Belgrade since his debut in 2013. But such has been the impression made that Chelsea obviously feel they have little to lose and everything to gain by his signing.

If he makes the grade then Chelsea will have signed a top star for peanuts. But, if he does struggle to cope with the almost impossibly high standards required to get into, and remain in the Chelsea XI, the club will surely cover their costs with the resale.

At 18 it’s a long road ahead for the lad but he does appear to have great technique already and may turn out to be a midfielder who can score and provide goals – he has already scored a couple for the seniors in Belgrade which is no mean feat for one so young.

In other news The Daily Star reports that a Chelsea youngster has completed a loan move to Portugal:

Another confirmed move away from Chelsea involves youngster Ulises Davila, who has joined Portuguese side Vitoria Setubal on loan.

Let’s take a brief look at Pantic in action. Chelsea fans: yet another who will never see first team action, or a star of the future?
