Despite the playing staff at Stamford Bridge not remaining consistent, one thing which has is their academy. Chelsea's youth set-up is one of the best in England and has produced players such as John Terry and now, club captain Reece James. There are even multiple academy graduates within Mauricio Pochettino's first-team fold, such as Trevoh Chalobah and Levi Colwill.
Colwill was among the Seagulls' best defenders throughout the 2022/23 season and had many clubs vying for his signature over the summer. However, these bids were ignored and Chelsea chose to keep the youngster within their first-team ranks in order to utilise him across the season. It now seems as if that risk has been met with a reward as, according to CIES Football Observatory, Colwill is now the joint-fourth highest-valued player at the club.
