Mauricio Pochettino has ruled out the CHELSEA sale of Levi Colwill because he will become “one of the greatest centre backs in England”

Colwill made a big impact on the Premier League last season for Brighton and really established himself as one of the best young centre-backs in the Premier League right now.

Brighton, and a number of other clubs, have shown an interest in getting a transfer deal done for Colwill this summer and it has even been claimed that Chelsea will do business if the right amount of money is offered.

Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi even claimed the club should release Colwill if they want to sign Seagulls midfielder, Moises Caicedo

WHAT HAS BEEN SAID – 

However, Pochettino insists he won’t entertain the idea of selling his 20-year-old defender, declaring: “He is going to continue with us.

“I am happy with him, his performance was good today, better than what I expected because it is only the first game with us after the season with Brighton. I am so happy, he can be one of the greatest centre-backs in England.”

DOES COLWILL DESERVE CHELSEA CHANCE?

Look – Colwill needs to get his chance at Stamford Bridge – he deserves it for the performances he has been putting in over the past 12 months.

So, the news that Pochettino has plans to keep him at the club is great to hear for the fans – as many believed that the club would be selling another exciting talent.

He really is one that has a big future in the game
