Five Chelsea FC Under 21 Players Ready For The First Team
5. Nathaniel Chalobah
Age: 19
Nathaniel Chalobah has been a very noted prospect among the youth ranks for quite some time now. He has captained many youth teams for both Chelsea and England, and is a player with loads of potential. He is versatile enough to play as both a center back and holding midfield player however he is better served as a central defensive midfielder. Chalobah has good passing skills, is strong on the ball and possesses a unique stamina. He has had impressive loan spells at Watford and Middlesbrough, it is expected that he will be promoted into the first team this season, and he should impress and possibly replace John Obi Mikel.
