A new face appeared at Chelsea training today, in the person of a (very) young player from the Blues’ academy, only 14 years old.
Remember this name already: Charlie Holland. Captain of the Chelsea U14 team, the young teenager was invited to train with the Blues professional team this Thursday, May 11. A few days ago, the 14-year-old took his team to victory in the Albert Phelan Cup South trophy, thanks in particular to a 5-0 victory in the final against Fulham.

Namely that the young players of the London academy do their schooling in Cobham, where the professional workforce also trains. For the record, the most player who has worn the Chelsea jersey in official competition is called Ian Hamilton and made his debut with the Blues jersey at the age of 16 years, 4 months and 15 days. A record that dates back more than 56 years. But until then, there are still several steps to take for the young Charlie Holland.
