Rueben Loftus-Cheek is one of the unusual Chelsea player in the last decade. He is an academy product in a sea of purchased superstars. In spite of all the success that Chelsea enjoyed in the recent years one thing that always lacked ever since the promotion of the likes of John Terry and Frank Lampard is an academy player and Loftus-Cheek provides just that.
Therefore, it is not doubt a happy news and a very strong positive sign that Loftus-Cheek has signed a new contract with Chelsea that will tie the 20-year old youngster to the club till 2021.
The player has played only 9 games this season and managed to get only 10 minutes in the Premier League but that is more than most Chelsea academy players can dream of. With a very high standard for the first team it is increasingly difficult for any youth team players to break into the senior team and Loftus-Cheek doing that speaks volume about the quality of the player. Obviously, he is very happy to be associated with Chelsea on a long-term contract as well.
