Kendry Paez trains with Chelsea as they prepare for EFL Cup final

Kendry Paez will become a Chelsea player from 2025 thanks to a deal the Blues reached with Independiente del Valle, which states that the 16-year-old will play in the Premier League when he turns 18.

Meanwhile, the Stamford Bridge outfit want to help the Ecuadorian midfielder to adapt as quickly as possible in order to shine in the English top-flight. For that reason, he is already taking part in some of Chelsea's training sessions.

In fact, Kendry Paez trained with his future teammates at Tuesday's training session under Mauricio Pochettino at the Cobham training complex.

The Blues trained on Tuesday in preparation for the Carabao Cup final against Liverpool at Wembley on Sunday. "We need to feel that it is possible to beat Liverpool," said Pochettino, whose side were crushed 4-1 by the Reds last month.
