UPDATE: Fabrizio Romano confirms Bernardo Cueva is joining Chelsea for £750,000.
Brentford have announced the departure of tactical statistician Bernardo Cueva.
"Bernardo has done a fantastic job for us over the last four seasons. His first season ended with promotion to the Premier League, and he has played a key role in us now achieving four successive Premier League seasons. Part of Bernardo’s role relates to our set-piece strategies, and this is an area we think everyone at the club can be proud about."
The 36-year-old is expected to join Chelsea in the summer. The Blues hope his arrival will boost the Blues' set-piece efficiency.
Mauricio Pochettino's team have scored seven league goals from dead balls this season, ranking 22nd in Europe in this stat. There's a feeling the Blues could do better given the number of players who could pose an aerial threat.
