Chelsea Youngster Reece James Signs New Five-Year Deal worth £25million

Chelsea youngster Reece James has tied his future to the London club after signing a new five-year deal worth £25million on Thursday.

After enjoying a loan spell at Wigan, James returned to Chelsea this season buoyed by the Chelsea ban on signing players, and made 18 appearances for Chelsea this season establishing himself as a first team player.

James, who joined Chelsea aged eight, and will be paid 100,000 pounds per week from now, said: ‘It has been my dream to be here at Chelsea and play week in week out and to have a contract for another five-and-a-half years is living the dream again.

‘I have always wanted to be here and another five-and-a-half years means a lot to me and a lot to my family.

‘There are a few of us playing in Chelsea’s first team now who have all come through the academy at the same time and that’s great.

‘It shows how well the academy brought us through and how well we are doing.’
