‘Am happy to join my dream club’ youngster is set to join Chelsea after rejecting Arsenal in the past
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Well, it seems Chelsea is gearing up to snag another promising youngster in the next transfer window! The club has been on a bit of a spending spree lately under Todd Boehly and Behdad Eghbali, pulling out all the stops to secure some of the brightest talents around.
One of their star catches so far has been Estevao Willian. This guy’s already making waves on the Brazil national team, and Chelsea’s betting big on him being a game-changer when he officially joins the first team next season. It’s like they’ve struck gold with this signing, and you can almost feel the buzz around Stamford Bridge.

But the Blues aren’t just looking overseas for talent—they’re scouting closer to home too. The latest buzz? Mathis Eboue, a 15-year-old sensation from Watford, is reportedly on the verge of joining the club.
Now, here’s the kicker: Eboue once turned Chelsea down for Arsenal when he was just an Under-8 player. Yep, his dad shared the story, explaining why they chose the Gunners back then. But now, it seems the youngster’s ready to wear blue.
According to The Secret Scout, Eboue’s been on Chelsea’s radar for years. And why not? The kid’s already making headlines with Watford’s U21s and has even scored for England’s U16s. Felix Johnston didn’t hold back with the praise, calling him “powerful” and a real goal threat. He’s two-footed, smooth on the ball, and knows how to find the back of the net. Sounds like Chelsea’s got a diamond in the rough here.
Still, not everything’s smooth sailing for the Blues. There’s been chatter about the academy losing faith in the pathway to the first team. Rio Ngumoha, one of their top prospects, left for Liverpool this summer after feeling like he wasn’t getting a fair shot. Even Chelsea legend John Terry called it a big loss, saying Ngumoha was “top, top talent.”
With negotiations over Josh Acheampong’s contract getting a little tense, Chelsea needs to tread carefully. Losing young stars like this too often could end up costing them big. But for now, landing Mathis Eboue feels like a win they’ll be eager to celebrate.
