Chelsea set to sign versatile non-league starlet

Reports in England claim that Chelsea are weighing up a move for non-league starlet Seb Drozd.

The Blues have been keeping close tabs on the 18-year-old, who is on the books of Isthmian League side Uxbridge, but is currently on trial with Brentford’s B team.

Drozd’s abilities were first spotted by the Blues when he featured in a showcase organised by the AG Football Academy.

The versatile left-footed teen can play as a full-back, wingback or in midfield.

And after shining in front of Chelsea’s scouts , Drozd also impressed in two games for QPR’s U18s last autumn.

A source close to Drozd said: “His style is perhaps a throwback and is similar to Damien Duff or Chris Waddle when in wide areas, but he has pace.”
