We all expected Chelsea wonderkid Charly Musonda to leave on loan next season as he continues his development but it seems the 20-year-old would be part of Chelsea’s first team next season.

According to @chelseayouth, Charly Musonda has been handed the number 17 shirt for next season which could mean the youngster is staying at Stamford Bridge and not leaving on loan.

The number 17 shirt was worn by fellow Belgian Eden Hazard when he first joined Chelsea before he made the switch to number 10. The number 17 has been vacant since Pedro switched to his preferred number 11 last season.

Musonda was recently linked with a £5million move to Scottish champions Celtic but his brother rubbished reports linking Musonda with Celtic.
