Chelsea youngster Levi Colwill is expected to return just in time for Chelsea ahead of their trip to the United States for the second half of their pre-season training.

The Blues have been going hard in Cobham where the work has mainly been about their physical condition, they will however look to put in more tactical work when they get to Philadelphia.

The future of promising youngster Levi Colwill who was once again outstanding as England won the European under-21 championship continues to be up for discussion.

Brighton, where he spent a season out on-loan last year have already had a bid for him rejected while Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is reported to be a massive fan of his.

Chelsea have also in recent weeks signalled they are intending to keep him but the youngster says he’ll only make a decision after he’s held talks with his family.

He told the Dailymail: “I’ll speak to my family, speak to everyone I need to and make a decision.

“I’ve got to play at the end of the day, to hopefully get there and go to the next [senior] camp. But if I’m here, I’ll still be happy. You’ve always got to be happy when you’re picked for any England age group. It’s an honour.”

Chelsea have shipped out a host of their star players but kept hold of Thiago Silva who is expected to be named the captain of the team or at least an assistant. The veteran defender is definitely one Colwill can learn a thing or two from.
