Chelsea chief Emenalo: Vitesse best place for Solanke

Chelsea chief Michael Emenalo says Vitesse Arnhem is the best place for Dominic Solanke.

The striker is impressing on-loan at Vitesse this season.

“What do you do with Solanke?" Emenalo tells the Sunday Telegraph. “Do you leave him here to play another year of under-21s when he is clearly too good for it? Do you have him train with the first team and get minimal minutes? Do you send him to a Championship team and have him deal with balls in the air?

"With 35-year-olds much stronger than him in a system that does not suit the cerebral type of player we want here? Or do you send him to a place you know he will get minutes and will be educated the right way?"
