Chelsea Set To Offer Nigerian Defender Aina New Deal

Allnigeriasoccer.com understands that Chelsea are set to offer talented Nigerian defender Jordan Aina a new deal ahead of the start of the 2018-2019 season.

Born December 10, 2001, Jordan Aina is expected to sign a fresh two-year deal in the summer and will become a first-year full-time scholar at The Blues.

He would be hoping to follow in the footsteps of his sibling Ola Aina, who signed a scholarship deal at Chelsea in July 2013 before making his professional debut three years later against Bristol Rovers in the League Cup.

Jordan made his debut for England U16s in a 3-1 win over Romania in an international friendly on August 24, 2016.

He has been registered by Chelsea for the knockout rounds of the UEFA Youth League and it is envisaged he will debut for the U18s in the coming months.

It is also a foregone conclusion that the highly-rated midfielder Faustino Anjorin will be among the new scholarship intake next season.

Anjorin was aged 15 when he made his debut for Chelsea's U18 team, has scored four goals this season and has featured in the UEFA Youth League.
