Ben Chilwell 'to tell Leicester he wants to leave and join Chelsea' as England full-back sees long term future at Stamford Bridge

Ben Chilwell plans to tell Leicester that he wants to quit for Chelsea.

Frank Lampard is keen to add England left-back Chilwell to his squad at Stamford Bridge next season.

The 23-year-old has been at Leicester since aged 12 and is under contract until 2024.

But the Daily Mirror claims the defender sees his long-term future at Chelsea.

Leicester's hopes of keeping Chilwell this summer were hit by their failure to qualify for the Champions League.

The 2-0 defeat at home to Manchester United on Sunday concluded a disappointing final few weeks of the season for Brendan Rodgers' side.
