Cesare Casadei continues to impress for Chelsea under-21s throughout the World Cup break as he eyes a spot in Graham Potter's senior squad.
Casadei was one of four signings that fit in with Todd Boehly's new long-term vision at Stamford Bridge, along with the arrivals of Gabriel Slonina, Omari Hutchinson and Carney Chukwuemeka. The American owner has looked to protect the future of the Blues by signing talented youngsters and the Italian midfielder has been a standout performer at youth level.
Casadei has scored four goals and provided one assist in eight appearances for the under-21s and is hoping to break into the first team at Stamford Bridge. The 19-year-old featured in Italy's Primavera 1 division 30 times last term for Inter, netting 14 goals and 4 assists last season and added three more contributions in the UEFA Youth League.
