Chelsea’s U18 Squad Eyes National Title Glory
The wait has been long, but Chelsea’s U18 squad is finally back in the national final, set to take on Manchester United at Stamford Bridge tomorrow night. It’s been over five years since the Blues last lifted the U18 Premier League title, and this young generation is determined to bring it back to Stamford Bridge.
Led by head coach Hassan Sulaiman in his first full year, the team has been preparing meticulously for this moment. And with players like Josh Acheampong, who recently made his first-team debut, the squad is buzzing with confidence.

“I am buzzing for this United game,” Acheampong said in an interview. “We have done all the preparation that is needed and we are ready to go out and perform to our best ability to get the win. The squad is happy with our recent performances and the previous games have given us confidence going into this clash. It will be a difficult battle, but mentally we are ready.”
The stakes are high, but the reward is worth it. “To win the national title would mean everything to us,” Acheampong added. “To lift the trophy in front of our supporters would be the perfect ending to the season.”
This Chelsea U18 squad is not short on talent, with players like Tyrique George, Ollie Harrison, Kiano Dyer, Ishé Samuels-Smith, and Harrison Murray-Campbell all making the bench for the senior team in recent weeks. Striker Donell McNeilly has been on fire, scoring at rates not seen in a decade, since the days of Dominic Solanke and Tammy Abraham.
