Chelsea defender Levi Colwill is having quite a good season at his club following his return from Brighton & Hove Albion last summer.
Collectively, things are not exactly going to plan for Chelsea, who currently sit 10th in the Premier League table.
However, this is still a season that Levi Colwill will not be able to forget after making his England debut, something he spoke to Chelsea’s official website about.
Being able to play at both left-back and centre-back, the 20-year-old has been an important player for Mauricio Pochettino this term.
According to journalist Ben Jacobs, Colwill has now popped up on Paris Saint-Germain’s radar but Chelsea are unwilling to sell him.

Levi Colwill proud of England debut
Colwill has described his England debut this season as “one of my proudest moments”.
The Three Lions player said: “I hadn’t really thought about making my England debut, so for it to come around so quickly was amazing. That was all down to the coaches that I have played under and, of course, the England manager. It was definitely one of my proudest moments.
“Obviously, as that little boy, I wanted to play at Wembley but it felt so far away. Hopefully, I’ll play there for a third time now, this time in a cup final with Chelsea.”

What else can Levi Colwill be proud of?
The fact that he is already a regular starter at one of the biggest clubs at just 20 years of age and has captained them.
With Reece James, Ben Chilwell and Conor Gallagher all missing for Chelsea’s 2-1 defeat against Manchester United in December, Pochettino decided to give the armband to Colwill.
Despite being so young, the England international is clearly a player who his manager trusts and one who Chelsea look reluctant to sell amid reported interest from PSG.
He now seems likely to start the Blues’ Carabao Cup final clash against Liverpool this Sunday, with Thiago Silva still recovering from a groin issue. The Brazilian may be fit enough to make the bench, but one player who will definitely be out is Benoit Badiashile.
