Ajax midfielder Edson Alvarez has opened up on his failed transfer to Chelsea.
The Blues have made an official bid for the Mexico Intneration last summer, however, the Eredivisie outfit rejected the deal.
Alvarez's potential move to Stamford Bridge may have been prevented after Enzo Fernandez's arrival in London during the January transfer window.
However, the 25-year-old keeps his mind open and doesn't rule out a transfer to Chelsea in the near future.
“I grieved for one day and then showed that I am a strong person. Of course, the disappointment lasted for a while, but I believe that everything happens for a reason. Maybe it wasn’t the right time yet. My time will come, 100%. That is in God’s and my own hands. And I’m working hard to be ready for a new challenge,” told the midfielder as quoted by CaughtOffside.
Later in the interview, the Ajax star confessed if another chance appears during the coming summer transfer window, he’d be open to 'seize that opportunity".
“I came to Ajax to learn, to enjoy and to reach the next level. Of course, my focus is 100% on Ajax at the moment. But if something beautiful comes along next summer that is good for Ajax and for me, then I want to seize that opportunity."
