Reece James admits to having grown up idolising Chelsea legends Didier Drogba, Frank Lampard and Arjen Robben, with the 20-year-old now looking to write his own success story at Stamford Bridge.
A product of the Blues’ academy system has been part of the set-up in west London since 2006. He is currently living the dream as a senior star with the club he supported as a boy.
A breakthrough season is being enjoyed in 2019-20, with a number of home-grown talents being given an opportunity to thrive, with James making the most of his chances.
