The 18-year-old was handed his Blues debut by former manager Mauricio Pochettino against Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League in the 2023/24 season. Last week, in a Europa Conference League clash against Astana, current boss Maresca handed him his first start as the club clinched a 3-1 win. The teenager has been touted as the next big thing at the West London side and after he committed his future to the club, the Italian coach spoke highly of the defender's abilities.
