Shim Mheuka has just been nominated for the PL2 player of the year award after scoring 18 goals in 19 games.

In addition, be bagged 5 in 6 games in the UEFA Youth League, and 13 in 10 for England. A quite incredible season, and the only question is what comes next.

Chelsea don’t seem interested in using him in the first team, so we a loan seems most likely. He played 128 minutes for the first team last season, and that fell to 31 minutes this campaign, mainly due to a lack of Conference League action.

Loan lined up for Mheuka – but big decision over where

Well it certainly worked on that front, as the goal machine kept scoring. But now comes the real test – choosing the perfect loan destination for him to take the step into the senior game.
