Saul Niguez Reveals Why He Moved To Chelsea
JAKARTA - Saul Niguez spoke exclusively to Spanish youtuber Ibai Llanos on his Twitch channel about his move to Chelsea on loan.
The midfielder, who joined from Atletico Madrid, explained that leaving the Spanish capital was a difficult decision.
His desire to leave had grown over the summer. However, last weekend when appearing in the game against Villarreal, he thought he would stay at Atletico.

In the end, everything happened very quickly, and he revealed that in just a few minutes of the transfer window deadline, contracts and documents were still being checked.
Saul admits he has stagnated at the Wanda Metropolitano. And he now wants to thrive with a fresh start in a new environment.
At Chelsea, he should have the perfect opportunity to remind everyone how good he is.
Saul played 11 seasons at Atletico with 52 goals and 23 assists. He also managed to lead Los Rojiblancos to various titles.
Some of the titles that Atletico have won are one Spanish Cup trophy, one Spanish Super Cup, two Europa League Cups, one European Super Cup, and last season's La Liga champions.
