Chelsea defender Reece James has vowed to help the Blues to more silverware after penning a new six-year deal at Stamford Bridge.
The West London club announced that the right-back had committed his future to 2028 with new owner Todd Boehly prioritising extending James’ stay - his previous contract set to expire in 2025. He is now reportedly one of the highest-paid defenders in Chelsea’s history and supporters will no doubt be delighted to see James pen fresh terms having seen him become a key cog under Thomas Tuchel.
It is understood James' new deal is worth £250,000 a week, making him the highest-paid defender in Chelsea's history. After the news of his extended stay was confirmed, the 22-year-old expressed his delight at finally putting pen to paper and made a vow of attempting to lift more silverware in the remainder of his career at Stamford Bridge.
