Ehibhatiomhan has been offered fresh terms to extend his stay at Reading but he sees his future elsewhere.
Princewill is the younger brother of Reading academy product Kelvin Ehibhatiomhan, who was on target for the Royals in their recent Carabao Cup defeat to Stevenage.
Princewill has proved his goalscoring credentials in the U18 Premier League with seven goals in fourteen matches over the course of last season and has debuted in the Premier League 2 and FA Youth Cup.
Chelsea U18s begin the new season with a London derby against Arsenal in the U18 Premier League on Saturday, August 13.
