It did not take long for Reece James to become a Chelsea treasure. He was practically destined to become a Chelsea great from the second he returned from Wigan on loan. As it stands, he is a Champions League and Club World Cup winner for his boyhood club and has made a name for himself as one of the best right-backs in the game right now. It's no wonder that clubs like Real Madrid and Manchester City are keeping an eye on the 24-year-old.
As his contract is not set to run out up until 2025, the question is, why does Chelsea need to rush on renewing his terms? He does not look set to leave any time soon and appears to be happy at the club. His father in the past stated that it would be his son's dream to one day become captain of Chelsea.
But as we now know, things can change in the blink of an eye, so Chelsea must move fast and smart with Reece James.
