Chelsea defender Marc Guehi is slightly in the shadows of some of his larger named academy breakouts at Chelsea right now, as the likes of Callum Hudson-Odoi, Mason Mount and Tammy Abraham are turning themselves into important first team players.
But there is no mistaking that the under-23 captain also has the talent to succeed and break into the first team, and as we know at Chelsea right now under Frank Lampard, there is no better time for the youngsters to do this.
The 19-year old played in the same England under-21 side as Hudson-Odoi this week, with the latter obviously stealing the limelight with two excellent goals.
But Guehi has big ambitions, but those plans might not necessarily involve a loan move as so many others have had. The young prospect has been speaking to TalkSport’s Ian Abrahams about his future at Chelsea.
As reported in text form by The Chelsea Chronicle, Guehi said:
“The door is open for anything really, if the opportunity is there and it’s the right move for me to go on loan I wouldn’t say no.
“But at the same time if the gaffer wants me to stay and stay help the team and develop and try keep pushing others players in the squad I would do that as well.
“100 per cent staying [will help my development], I’m training with some of the best players in the world. I’ve got an amazing manager to look up to and feed off. Staying would be probably number one choice for me.”
