Kendry Páez transfer status uncertain amid conflicting reports

The future of Ecuadorian playmaker Kendry Páez remains uncertain as reports regarding a potential loan move to Trabzonspor fluctuate. While some reports indicate that Chelsea is preparing to allow the 19-year-old to join the Turkish Super Lig club for the 2026-27 season to secure regular playing time, other sources suggest that Trabzonspor has ended discussions and declined the signing.

Páez, who is owned by Chelsea, has struggled to find consistent minutes during recent stints at Strasbourg and River Plate. If the move to Turkey fails, Páez may return to England to play for a Championship club. Trabzonspor has recently been active in the market, including the signing of Mohamed Salah, and is currently competing for European qualification.
