Chelsea told to pay Exeter City just £2.5m for wonderkid Ethan Ampadu following tribunal... as Grecians say they are 'disappointed for football'

Exeter City have expressed their 'disappointment' after Chelsea were ordered to pay £2.5million to the League Two club for teenager Ethan Ampadu.

Ampadu, already a Wales international aged 17, came through Exeter's academy but moved to Stamford Bridge last summer. He has made seven appearances for the Chelsea senior team, including as a substitute in the 3-1 Premier League win over Huddersfield in December.

As a youth player, the defender's transfer fee was set by a tribunal, with the ruling handed down on Friday.
