Ajax scout Haesaert: Blame entourage for Musonda's Chelsea career flop

Ajax's Belgian scout Urbain Haesaert isn't surprised to see Charly Musonda's career stall at Chelsea.

The midfielder has seen an 18 month loan with Celtic cut short after just six months.

Haesaert lamented: "It is because of the entourage that chose fast money and enjoyed the praise of Jan Boskamp. He missed part of his training, it'd been better if he stayed at Anderlecht. Musonda has a formidable basic technique, but only used it for himself."

He also told Sport/Voetbalmagazine: "My advice is still: first try two years with success in the first team of Anderlecht or Ajax to play.

"If you play for two years in the firsts of Ajax or Anderlecht, you will not get poor, you will get what you have apparently left behind. Then, after, you can get a good transfer at the right time to the right club."
