Chelsea's ideal Jules Kounde and Thiago Silva partner for 2022/23 makes honest John Terry claim

Chelsea loanee Levi Colwill has said he is not going to 'complain' with the comparisons circulating on social media and within the media comparing his career path and game to Blues legend John Terry.

Colwill, 19, has had a rather fruitful season in the Championship with Huddersfield Town where he and fellow Chelsea loanee Tino Anjorin have helped the Terriers make the playoffs. The defender's performances throughout 2021/22 have caught the eye of many Premier League clubs including Leicester City who have already registered their interest in the next Terry according to various reports. However, it is more than likely that Thomas Tuchel will want to see Colwill in pre-season before he makes his mind up about his compatibility within his squad, just like he did with Trevoh Chalobah.

If things were to go well for the young Englishman in pre-season, just like current Crystal Palace loanee Conor Gallagher, both are expected to be handed squad roles at the very minimum with many of the current first-team set-up expected to pack up their bags and leave, as per The Athletic. The defence itself in west London is an area of concern with the likes of Marcos Alonso, Cesar Azpilicueta, Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen all expected to leave for various La Liga sides in the summer meaning four roles potentially open up for internal and external recruitment by the new ownership structure, which is likely to include Todd Boehly in it if the latest reports are to be believed.
