Chelsea manager Liam Rosenior has reacted to captain Reece James signing a new deal until 2032. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, the academy graduate is definitely the best in the world in his position, so he is happy to have him around for much longer.
Rosenior added that James’ performances in recent seasons prove that a new contract is the least he deserves.
His words, “I can’t stop smiling because we’ve secured the best player in world football in his position. He’s had many opportunities to leave this magnificent club, and the good thing is he’s come through from a very young age and has belief and confidence in what we’re doing here. We’ve had many conversations about it. For him to sign a deal and put his faith in us is a massive step.
Do I have to explain that when you’ve seen him play? He’s top… He can play many different positions, technically, he can score goals, he defends, his athleticism, has tactical understanding.”
WOW.
Chelsea Football Club is an English professional football club based in Fulham, West London. Founded in 1905, they play their home games at Stamford Bridge.
The club competes in the Premier League, the top division of English football. They won their first major honour, the League championship, in 1955. The club won the FA Cup for the first time in 1970, their first European honour, the Cup Winners’ Cup, in 1971, and became the third English club to win the Club World Cup in 2022.
On 7 May 2022, Chelsea confirmed that terms have been agreed for a new ownership group, led by Todd Boehly, Clearlake Capital, Mark Walter and Hansjörg Wyss, to acquire the club. The group was later known as BlueCo.
The UK government approved the £4.25bn takeover, ending Abramovich’s 19-year ownership of the club. Bruce Buck, who served as chairman since 2003, was replaced by Boehly, while long-serving club director and de facto sporting director Marina Granovskaia left, as did Petr Čech from the role of technical and performance advisor.
