Tomori living the dream after England call-up

Fikayi Tomori has been a revelation for Chelsea this season. The 21-year-old broke into the starting XI at Stamford Bridge at the end of August, making his full debut in a 2-2 draw against Sheffield United. Since then the Canadian-born defender has gone from strength to strength to make himself a regular in Frank Lampard’s team.

Long road to success

Tomori originally made his debut at the end of the 2015/16 season, coming on as a late substitute in a 1-1 draw with Leicester City.

Since then the centre-back has spent time away from West-London with a series of loans at Championship level.
