These 2 Chelsea youngsters could be the next Marcus Rashford

Ike Ugbo

It’s clear that striker Ike Ugbo is the next ‘big thing’ at Stamford Bridge, especially given his incredible goal-scoring record over the last few years.

The 18-year-old joined Chelsea at the age of ten and progressed through the ranks, before embarking on his first season for the youth team back in 2014/15, scoring 11 goals in 18 games.

His goal-record then got even better, netting 26 times in just 29 games the season after, as well as finding the net on nine occasions so far this term, including in the 2-0 win over Reading a few weeks ago, for the Under-23s, which is his first full campaign at that level.

Ugbo has already been recognised at international level, appearing for the England Under-17s at the European Championships back in 2015, and with a campaign of Under-23 football under his belt this term, that can only do his progression good, so don’t be surprised to see his name in and around the Chelsea first team in years to come.
