Chelsea's hopes of keeping hold of Levi Colwill are set to be tested once again in the coming weeks. The 20-year-old defender has been heavily linked with a permanent move to Brighton following his impressive loan move.
Colwill started 17 games in all competitions for Roberto De Zerbi's side to help them qualify for the Europa League for the first time in their history. His performances have led to the Seagulls considering to break their club-record transfer fee for his services.
"I would like to work with him for another two, three, four years," Brighton boss Roberto De Zerbi said. "It's difficult to find another centre-back, left centre-back, with his quality. He's a good guy, I think he's improving a lot. This year his improvement has been fantastic, I hope he can stay with us."
