Malo Gusto
22-Year-Old
Chelsea
Premier
Contributes at both ends
Gusto recorded two shots (zero on goal), seven crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Wednesday's 1-0 victory versus Pafos.
ANALYSIS
Gusto delivered a solid two-way performance against Pafos on Wednesday, contributing offensively with two shots, one key pass and a season-high seven crosses, though without end product, while also adding one tackle and three interceptions defensively. The fullback is enjoying a solid season but remains in competition for the right-back role and appears to start mainly when Reece James is unavailable or deployed in midfield.

Not an option
Gusto (undisclosed) trained individually on Friday and is not an option for Saturday's clash against Brentford, coach Liam Rosenior said in the press conference, according to Bobby Vincent from Football London. "Malo was out on the field today [Thursday] and doing his individual work, so we're going to have to assess him some more. I can't put a time frame on it because there is no time frame. It's more of a pain issue. So when he feels comfortable, that's when he'll be back with the group."

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Juventus keeping close tabs
Juventus are interested in signing Gusto, according to Calciomercato.
ANALYSIS
Gusto has been unable to secure a regular first-team role at Chelsea and continues to rotate on the right side of the defense. Juventus are looking to bolster the right side of their defense, and Gusto is at the top of their list, although any move would have to wait until January at the earliest. The Serie A giants are expected to kick the tires on the availability of the Frenchman in the coming weeks to gauge the chances of where a move for Gusto is realistic or not.
