Kenedy has really screwed up.
Now 21 years old, he signed for Chelsea in 2015. A left sided player, more LB than winger, he went on loan to Watford at the beginning of last season but only played once before beinng recalled in January. He has made 11 appearances, most from the bench.
Just before a "friendly" against Arsenal in Beijing, he posted two messages on Instagram. The first was a picture of himself with the words (in Portuguese) "Fuck China". The second also contained a derogatory reference to China.
The message was swiftly deleted and he apologised. The club have profusely apologised. He has been disciplined.
He was booed by the entire crowd during the game.
Not only will he never be able to follow Oscar to countless wealth, but it now seems possible that China will ban everything to do with Chelsea. This will destroy the entire value of the trip and also put into jeapody sponsorship and broadcasting deals.
I suspect that Kenedy may be playing in the colours of another team before the season starts.
