Young Stars XI (CB)steemCreated with Sketch.

in #news6 years ago

The Young Stars XI CB is a hotly debated position, however, the final place goes to Andreas Christensen. The twenty two year old currently plays for Chelsea as a CB and the Denmark national team. After a brief junior spell at Brøndby IF he joined Chelsea at just fifteen years old in 2012. After two years playing for the Chelsea juniors he made his professional debut at the age of 17! After one season with Chelsea he was loaned to Borussia Mönchengladbach for two years. When asked why he was not sold Mourinho replied "He needs time to develop as he is still very young he will be back I am never letting him go." He is currently playing at Chelsea as co-captain and major CB for the Blues.


The Dane's strengths are physicality, pace, and tackling, all of which are versatile and required traits to make a strong CB.

Honourable mentions:

  1. Niklas Sule currently plays for Bayern Munich as a CB however has not played enough to show his full potential in professional football.
