Chelsea Talent Fikayo Tomori Delighted To Make His Professional Debut

Canada U20 international Fikayo Tomori was over the moon after making his competitive debut for the first team of Chelsea in their 1-1 draw with Leicester City in the English Premier League on Sunday afternoon.

Only four days ago, the young defender made The Blues 18-man squad for the first time in his career against Liverpool but wasn’t given a run-out, whereas he stepped out onto the Stamford Bridge turf in the 60th minute today, replacing IvanoviÄ�.

“ What. A. Day. Proud to make my Chelsea debut today vs Leicester in front of the home fans at Stamford Bridge to cap off a great week!ð��� , ” Tomori tweeted.

The 18-year-old helped Chelsea U19s retain the UEFA Youth League last month, starring in the final against PSG.

Tomori was recently voted Chelsea Academy Player of the Year for 2016.
