The highly-rated centre-half is enjoying a breakthrough season at Stamford Bridge, with comparisons now being drawn to a legendary ex-Blues defender
Fikayo Tomori has earned plenty of plaudits at Chelsea this season, with former Blues star Joe Cole claiming that the promising defender reminds him of a “young William Gallas”.
That is high praise for a 21-year-old enjoying a breakthrough campaign at Stamford Bridge.
A product of a famed academy system must have wondered whether such a standing would come his way, with a path to the first-team seemingly blocked for many years at Stamford Bridge.
