‘Fantastic’ – Chelsea player’s award shows why Mauricio Pochettino had to play him Vs Arsenal – opinion
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Chelsea’s young talent, Levi Colwill, has received recognition for his impressive development over the past year by being named in the 25-man shortlist for the prestigious Golden Boy award. The award is bestowed upon the best under-21 player in Europe.
While the eventual winner of the award may already seem clear this year, Colwill’s nomination is a testament to his outstanding progress. Last season marked his first playing in a top European division while he was with Brighton & Hove Albion. He is now in his second Premier League campaign, this time at Chelsea, and has already demonstrated his worth by starting in all eight of the Blues’ top-flight games this season, even in a position that is not his natural one.
Colwill’s versatility and adaptability have been particularly impressive, proving beneficial for Chelsea, especially during their ongoing injury crisis. His passing abilities are a standout feature, embodying the traits of a modern-day center-back. Praised for his composure, passing accuracy, and ability to break the press, Colwill has showcased his potential as a rising star in the football world.
Mauricio Pochettino, Chelsea’s manager, has commended Colwill’s talent, underscoring the trust and confidence placed in him. Despite possibly not clinching the Golden Boy award this year, being in contention is a significant achievement for Colwill, given his relatively recent debut in the Premier League last season.
