Chelsea are the best fit of all the clubs he's been linked with and I'm happy with £45M with add ons. On the basis that we sell a starter each year to fund recruitment, most Leicester fans are massively relieved it's Chilwell rather than Maddison, Ndidi, Suyuncu or Ricardo this year.
I think Chelsea will be disappointed at how one-footed he is and at his poor end product. He also got ripped apart by top teams last year - Mahrez in particular gave him a torrid time - and fans were calling for him to be dropped. He might thrive under Frank, though, as there's certainly something about him, he works hard and has a proverbial "engine" on him. He's also surprisingly good in the air.
We've been linked with some good (and much cheaper) replacements, which will give Luke Thomas a year or two to develop. He signed a long-term contract yesterday and is a fantastic prospect.
