Chelsea FC's rising defensive star Stecchi is on the verge of completing an eye-catching transfer, and his next stop will be Venice, who were promoted to Serie A this season, according to a new report from renowned Italian soccer reporter Niccolò Scilla. The young 20-year-old defender, born on June 15, 2004, has made a name for himself in the Chelsea youth system with his excellent defensive ability and multi-positional adaptability. Stecchi plays primarily as a left back on the pitch, but also has the ability to play in a center back role, showing his potential as a versatile defender in modern soccer.
Sturge's current contract with Chelsea expires on June 30 next year, but according to information revealed by Scilla on social media, the youngster is getting closer to a move to Venice. The transfer is said to be for a fee of €1 million with an attractive clause attached - Chelsea will receive 30% of Stecchi's future transfer proceeds as a share. This arrangement not only reflects the Venice team's recognition of Sturge's individual ability, but also demonstrates Chelsea's foresight in the cultivation of young players and its willingness to bring financial returns to the team through a reasonable transfer strategy.
For Stecchi, joining Venice will be an important turning point in his career. As a newly promoted team in Serie A, Venice will provide the young defender with more playing opportunities and practical experience, which will help him further improve his competitive level. At the same time, the rigor and tactical quality of Italian soccer will also have a positive impact on Stecchi's growth. We expect Stecchi to continue to shine in his new journey in Venice and bring more exciting moments to the fans.
