Share:According to reports, Bayern Munich and Manchester City are both showing interest in signing Chelsea’s highly-touted young defender, Levi Colwill.
The 19-year-old, who is yet to make his first-team debut for the Blues, has been impressing on loan with Premier League side Brighton this season.
His rise through the ranks has not gone unnoticed, with both Bayern and City reportedly keen on bringing him in. However, Chelsea are said to be keen on keeping Colwill and have reportedly held informal talks about a contract extension for the teenager at Stamford Bridge.
Journalist Simon Phillips reported on his Substack of the top teams interest in the youngster.
“I’ve been told Colwill is attracting interest from giant clubs Manchester City and Bayern Munich this week. It’s just interest at this stage, but Colwill is certainly becoming a player that many big clubs are watching and aware of”.
“Chelsea spoke to him about a new deal over the weekend when he was back at Stamford Bridge. The club want to put another four years on his contract which will see his deal extended to 2029. At the minute I believe these discussions have just been informal, but I do expect Chelsea to step these up very soon with other clubs beginning to circle for him.” he added.
