The opportunity to move to England would be a very exciting one for the young midfielder. It will be a step up for him and he will test himself at the highest level.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">His development could accelerate if he gets regular playing time in the Premier League. It will be interesting to see whether Chelsea take over their interest and make a formal offer to finalize a deal.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">If Chelsea decide to trigger the release clause in the midfielder&#8217;s contract, Boca Juniors will be powerless to prevent his departure in January.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">It shouldn&#8217;t be too difficult for Chelsea to convince the midfielder to join the club. They are one of the biggest clubs in the world and most young players would want to join them.
