AI summary
Geovany Quenda has not been discouraged by a slow start to life at Chelsea, according to Football London. The 19-year-old Portuguese winger, signed from Sporting CP for around £40 million, has featured in Alonso's squad twice but remained unused in both the Arsenal defeat and Wednesday's 6-3 Carabao Cup win over Leeds.
With Morgan Rogers, Cole Palmer, Pedro Neto, Estevao Willian and Jamie Gittens competing for flank spots, minutes are scarce. Sources close to Quenda say he is still settling into English football and retains confidence that opportunities will come as the season progresses.
