London-born Josh Kofi Acheampong could make his debut for Chelsea FC against Sheffield United if Malo Gusto is fit to play.
Chelsea will take on Sheffield United on Saturday afternoon at Stamford Bridge without stricken captain Reece James.
‘On Monday, we will know more about the next steps for Reece and how we will proceed—whether it’s necessary or not [to have surgery],’ the head coach said about his team captain.
Acheampong has been with Chelsea since he joined their development center program at the age of eight and can play in various positions along the defensive line.
He starred for England at the recently concluded FIFA U-17 World Cup in Indonesia and has been tipped for a great future.
