No Media Hype, No Pressure: Chelsea's Aina To Continue His Slow But Steady Growth Next Season
Published: July 02, 2019
Chelsea are known are for their ability to groom youngsters into world-class players, though, they might end up loaning them to interested clubs or even sell them outrightly.
The blatant truth is that the Blues have one of the best atmospheres in England where youngsters can nurture their talent, and that's what Jordan Aina is doing at the Cobham training ground.
The 17-year-old fullback hasn't been offered a professional career by the West London club who are taking their time to monitor his performances and his overall qualities in the team.
Ola Aina's younger brother featured in 11 games for theĀ Blues in the U18 Premier League last season but he's not one of most talked-about players at Stamford Bridge.
Though many up-and-coming players love being in the news at tender age, Jordan Aina's lack of media hype and publicity will help him continue his slow but steady growth at Stamford Bridge as there won't be any pressure to impress fans or pundits.
He's expected to have some game-time with the U23 team next season which will boost his chances of being offered his first professional contract by the club.
It remains to be seen if the youngster will follow his brother's footsteps by choosing to play for Nigeria ahead of England when it is time to think of his international career.
