Levi Colwill price sky rockets as Chelsea learn £120m transfer lesson after Mason Mount sale

Chelsea are learning from their mistakes. Just one day after agreeing to sell an academy graduate for the biggest transfer fee received for someone coming through Cobham, it has emerged that similar efforts are being taken to tie down Levi Colwill.

The 20-year-old has already been subject to two massive offers from Brighton, who were impressed by his performances under Roberto De Zerbi last season. At £40million, the offers from the Seagulls would be more than Chelsea received for both Fikayo Tomori and Tammy Abraham.

At the current moment these are the largest incoming prices for Cobham's biggest exits but Mason Mount is set to bring in £55million for his move to Manchester United with the prospect of that still rising further to £60million with add-ons reached.
