Report: 26-year-old star set to renew Chelsea contract

Ben Chilwell is set to extend his Chelsea contract to two years

Chelsea left-back Ben Chilwell’s contract is anticipated to be extended by two more years, keeping him with the team through 2027.

The 26-year-old is now thought to be committed to Chelsea for many more years to come, and according to Athletic, (Subscription required) (h/t Daily Mail) Chilwell is likely to extend his contract by another two years.

The left-back’s contract will expire in 2025, (Transfermarkt) and Chelsea are eager to try and lock him down to a longer one in order to stave off interest.

Despite missing half of the season due to a hamstring injury, Chilwell has continued to perform to a high standard resulting in the owners giving him a new contract.

The England international has made 19 Premier League appearances and has netted two goals and provided three assists. Chelsea, which is experiencing a challenging period at the moment, fired Graham Potter and named Frank Lampard as their temporary manager while they searched for the perfect leader for the upcoming season.

The Blues, who are currently in 11th position in the Premier League, will play Real Madrid this week in the eighth round of the Champions League.

The supporters have finally received some good news with Chilwell’s potential extension of his contract. Since joining the team in 2020, he has been pretty good and has continued to play a key role at the back.

However, he has been injury prone, having played in 80 games for Chelsea since his arrival in 2020, which could be a worry. But with the signing of Marc Currella, this shouldn’t pose an issue given we have sufficient depth at left-back.

Hopefully, the England international is more determined than ever to become one of our greatest left-backs. It remains to be seen how long the extension will be for, but it is good knowing that our current crop of players are seemingly willing to stick with the project and give it their best in SW6,
