Juan Cuadrado may already be the subject of a move away from England despite only arriving at Chelsea in January, but the former Fiorentina player appears happy and focused on the being part of another successful team for Colombia in the Copa America.
The showpiece South American event kicks off this week, with Colombia playing their first fixture against Venezuela on Sunday, and Cuadrado is counting down the days on his Instagram account.
Holding a bag of fruit in his Colombia training gear, the 27-year-old posted the message: '#Copaamerica ya mas cerca, con los panitas y mi @fcfseleccioncol,' which translates 'Copa America is even closer now, me and my close friends...'

While the group are all smiles, Cuadrado is yet to sparkle in the Premier League since his £27million move, but the winger will hope this summer's competition will enable him to re-discover the confidence and class that led to him moving to west London.
Indeed, Chelsea fans will not only have a watchful eye on Cuadrado, but also on how he dovetails with former Manchester United striker Radamel Falcao, who has been linked with a surprise move to Stamford Bridge.
Falcao scored the only goal as Colombia beat Costa Rica in their Copa America warm-up match earlier this week, which was assisted by Cuadrado.

The Monaco forward, who scored four goals in 26 Premier League appearances for United while on loan from the Ligue 1 side, netted for the fifth time in five Colombia appearances to secure victory.
The pair could be linking up more regularly next season with Falcao admitting he would like to remain in the Premier League.
