Carney Chukwuemeka

It was very refreshing to hear of a breaking transfer news story from Chelsea themselves. A rarity in today's age of 24/7 reporting and the thirst for ...

Chukwuemeka is arguably the most interesting deal Boehly will do in this window, partly because it follows a growing trend of the club snapping up exciting young talent from Premier League rivals. This deal is ironic given it feels like one Chelsea fans have become accustomed to hating, losing an academy talent to someone else as Villa did here when the player turned down a contract that would have made him the highest paid teen in English football. Chukwuemeka has been one of the rising stars of English football in recent years, progressing through the ranks at both club and International level.

Chelsea have managed to recruit on of the most sought-after youngsters in football in Aston Villa's Carney Chukwuemeka, and they had to fight off some ...

Chelsea have not had it all their own way in the transfer market this summer, as their failed pursuits of Jules Kounde and Raphinha demonstrate.

Chelsea have reached an agreement with Aston Villa for Carney Chukwuemeka. The 18-year-old is currently in London to undergo his medical.

Hopefully, the 18-year-old will fulfill his potential at the Bridge and becomes a future star. Chelsea have a bunch of youngsters in the midfield. Billy Gilmour is another youngster on our books with a lot of talent at his disposal.

Premier League | Aston Villa | Chelsea | Carney Chukwuemeka | Chukwuemeka's Villa Revolt Shows Why Agents And Young Players Are Not A Good Mix.

What doesn’t add up about the player moving to Chelsea is that one of his biggest concerns at Villa involved a lack of game time. Ramsey is a regular name in the first team, has already adapted well to the demands and the standards of the Premier League, while chipping in with goals and assists. This was just another example where an agent has taken advantage of a young player in a bid to find a deal best suited for them financially. The fans were quick to turn on him and are now glad to see the back of him now that he is moving on. It once again raises the question that perhaps agents should be prevented from being involved with young players due to the concerning amount of influence they can have on them. He knew how this situation was going to come across to the club and the fans, who had invested a lot in him since he joined the academy from Northampton Town in 2016.

Carney Chukwuemeka is close to being signed by Chelsea for a fee of £15 million plus add-ons up to £20 million, according to Fabrizio Romano.

However, Chelsea were triumphant in the end. Carney Chukwuemeka is just 18 years old yet has already made 13 senior appearances for Aston Villa, whose academy he played in during his youth. Chukwuemeka, who was branded by one of his Aston Villa teammates as “unbelievable”, is now reportedly in London with his family and agents awaiting medical tests with his prospective club.

The Blues have already added Raheem Sterling, Kalidou Koulibaly and goalkeeper Gabriel Slonina to their squad this summer, and Chukwuemeka is now set to ...

'Carney is yet to sign a contract offer that has been in place for some time now. Off the back of dazzling over the summer for England Under-19s, Chukwuemeka could be ready to step up and make a major breakthrough at senior level for Tuchel's men. The Premier League is known for its pace and intensity, meaning that Chukwuemeka is unlikely to be afforded the same time and space that has allowed him to flourish at youth level. England went on to play Israel again in the final, and Chukwuemeka scored his third goal of the tournament in extra-time to seal a 3-1 victory and the trophy. Chukwuemeka is still trying to make his way in the senior game, but his dribbling ability is already a clear strength. As a result, he is eligible to represent three countries, but he has elected to play for England at youth level, and he has already caught the eye for the Under-19s.

CHELSEA could scrap their plans to move for a player Thomas Tuchel is a huge fan of after agreeing a deal for Carney Chukwuemeka.

And while all three players operate in different positions, it is difficult to imagine the west London club making room for Casadei in their squad too. It was announced on Tuesday that Chelsea had struck an agreement with Aston Villa to sign England Under-19 international Chukwuemeka for £15m plus add-ons. Tuchel is reportedly a keen admirer of Casadei’s talents after receiving glowing reports about the Italian midfielder.

The London club had earlier announced that they had reached an agreement with Villa for the 18-year-old's permanent transfer to Stamford Bridge, as Thomas ...

He made his Premier League against Tottenham in May 2021 and a week later secured the FA Youth Cup trophy after beating Liverpool 2-1. He finished the tournament as the top scorer and was named Academy Player of the Season. The 18-year-old is regarded as one of the brightest talents and played an instrumental part in helping England to achieve glory at the Under-19 European Championship. He even got on the scoresheet in the final against Israel and earned a place in the UEFA Team of the Tournament.

The Blues have seen off competition from Borussia Dortmund and Barcelona to land the midfielder just one day ahead of the new Premier League season.

Chelsea have raided Aston Villa to sign highly-rated midfielder Carney Chukwuemeka He made 14 appearances last season but only three of them were starts. Chelsea complete the £20m signing of Carney Chukwuemeka from Aston Villa after seeing off competition from Dortmund and Barcelona for the highly-rated midfielder

Chelsea are usually the club selling young prospects for around $25 million, but this summer they are instead spending that kind of money on England ...

Whether that happens is another thing; with the exception of Frank Lampard’s first season in charge, very few young players have broken into the Chelsea first team recently. If he spends the upcoming season at Chelsea, then unless there are a few injuries, he probably won’t get too much game time. But the club’s new owners might have a different plan in mind. Over the last few years, very few players have been bought who weren’t already playing top level soccer regularly. And as Chelsea have already spent that kind of money on Chukwuemeka, they are unlikely to make a large profit on him if they only send him out on loan, especially if his salary is anything near the more than $5 million a year he reportedly demanded from Aston Villa. Chukwuemeka reportedly had sky-high salary demands, but with other top sides interested in him, it’s unlikely he would’ve chosen Chelsea if they didn’t offer him a path to first team soccer.

Carney Chukwuemeka has agreed the terms of a six-year contract at Chelsea and completed his transfer from Aston Villa.

He was also named Academy Player of the Season and came off the bench in the Premier League season finale against Chelsea at Villa Park. His ball-carrying ability and eye for an incisive pass have been key attributes in a rapid rise through the ranks. We are looking forward to Carney thriving here.’

Blues chairman Todd Boehly believes the 18-year-old 'is one of the most exciting young players in Europe'
