I think Lampard will use him tbh, Had a good season with us and still young and throw in the transfer ban, It just makes sense tbh
Agree he will get used, but will it be as a main starter or the odd Carabao cup game.
Can you see him being happy to sit on the bench waiting for his chance when he has just played football for 2 seasons, got superb reviews towards the end of last season which seen him get called back up to the French team, only to go back to the bench? I think if Lampard cant promise him he will be 1st choice then he will want off.
Think it will depend on how much he will agitate for a move, players have a massive say these days and if he doesnt want to be at the club there are others there he could look to develop, CAS thing will play a part, the players wishes, the potential improvement in wage on offer, the fact the Euros are on and he is in the France line up - he wont want to be sitting on any bench.
Personally i think the chances are very strong, i think CAS will over turn their ban at least temporally, i think its more to do with Uefa trying to smash their loan system anything, so they have a strong chance with CAS.
Overall if we miss out id move on to suit ourselves, hes good with potential and a good addition but not a great one, still think Yerry Mina is the real top talent.

It's possible, but Chelsea have Luiz and Rudiger established as the first choice pairing
They also have Christansen who is highly rated and did well at times under Conte
I'd argue you need 4 centre halves - Lampard had Tomori at Derby on loan last season and gave him 40 games. It's possible that he might have him as one of the four centre backs this season, especially with Azpilacueta able to cover in that role too
Equally I could see Zouma staying there if Lampard likes him, because he's good enough to start IMO - I don't think either Rudiger or Luiz are much bettter than him at all.
Chelsea’s last two managers have both thought they were. In fact he’s now been at the club for 5 years and has gotten no closer to breaking into the first team in that time.

Me too. But Zouma is the ideal foil for him. Centre back is as much about partnerships as it is individual ability. Keane is a great back up to have too. Can't under estimate how much he impressed me last season after his poor showing the season before.
Given that we started last season with 2 new CBs, a new system of defending set pieces, and had to cope with Mina's injuries, to actually finish with the 4th best defensive record was a great tribute to the players.
Pretty certain we'll see a big improvement again this season if we can keep hold of the same personnel.
Last thing I read was that Chelsea werent appealing.

That's not really true at all.
2015/16 he was practically an ever-present under Mourinho and Hiddink. Played 23 league games until he did his ACL in the February
Surprised me that Conte didn't fancy him, but maybe he didn't suit the three centre backs system they had and/or perhaps he took a while to get back to peak level after the ACL injury. But maybe Conte just didn't rate him. Who knows?
Not much of a surprise that Sarri didn't like him though, given the way Sarri sides play.

Let's hope they're not too appealing to Zouma either
That was a disastrous season for them where they were about 15th at Christmas, if Zouma was playing every game then it probably didn’t do him any favours in terms of his chances of being a first teamer from that point on.
Personally I think his ship has sailed at Chelsea and he’ll never be a regular for them. He needs a fresh start, if it hasn’t happened by now chances are it’s not going to.

Chelsea transfer ban: CAS update clears up debate over hearing dates
The Blues are hoping to have the two-window ban overturned or reduced
www.google.com
According to this, they have requested an appeal but haven’t yet (but still can) requested the suspension of the ban pending the appeal outcome, the appeal date is still to be set as well.
Havent really been following much football this summer to be honest so you could be right, id be surprised though.
