Lokomotiv Moscow Battling Newcastle For Chelsea's Brazilian Winger

Lokomotiv Moscow are working on a deal to sign Robert Kenedy from Chelsea on loan for the remainder of the 2017-2018 season, according to reports.

Brazilian television TV Globo is reporting that the young Brazilian striker Kenedy can exchange the English club for Lokomotiv Moscow now in January.

The 21-year-old is not in the plans of manager Antonio Conte, and has made only three appearances for the Premier League champions in the League Cup.

Lokomotiv Moscow face competition from Newcastle United for the signature of Kenedy.

The former Fluminense wonderkid is contracted to Chelsea until June 30, 2020.

He has played for Brazil's U17, U20 and U23 national teams.
