Michael Hector has left Chelsea and joined Fulham on a permanent deal.
The defender was supposed to move to the Whites in the summer, but the paperwork of the deal couldn’t be completed in time. So poor Michael has been training with the club all season, but unable to play.
That’s really astonishingly poor work from the people upstairs at Chelsea. They had a whole summer to sort a new club for him, and they ended up leaving it so late that he missed several months of his career entirely. We can only imagine how frustrating that must be.
Hector was a bizarre signing to begin with, joining from Reading in 2015, going out on loan a few times and now leaving permanently.
It would have made sense if we were just flipping him to make money… but after years of paying him good money we’ve basically sold him for what we bought him for.
The Chelsea transfer bods move in mysterious ways sometimes.
