Thomas Tuchel’s desire to sign two more central defenders to add to his Chelsea squad this summer has reportedly forced club legend John Terry into making an intervention of Levi Colwill.
The German has already captured experienced Napoli centre-back Kalidou Koulibaly in a £33million deal as the Blues boss looks to replace Antonio Rudiger and Andreas Christensen, who left on free transfers for Real Madrid and Barcelona respectively. But Chelsea’s pursuit of two further central defenders, Jules Kounde and Presnel Kimpembe, has caused some concern amongst the fanbase.
Doubts have emerged over the future of academy graduate Colwill, with Terry one of those concerned about his progress being stunted by more senior players. The 19-year-old impressed during a loan spell at Huddersfield last season and was welcomed onto the club’s pre-season tour of the USA before picking up a thigh injury.
