- He has two years left on his current dea
Colwill, who was one of the stars of England’s European Under-21 Championship success this summer, impressed hugely on loan at Brighton & Hove Albion last season. The Seagulls have already failed with a couple of bids to land him on a permanent basis.
Chelsea have stated since January, when Brighton first floated the idea of a permanent deal, that they are not looking to sell the defender.
However, 90min has been told that Colwill is far from convinced that his long-term future should be at Chelsea despite their insistence that he will get chances to prove himself this coming season.
Colwill’s current deal is due to expire in 2025 and Chelsea are looking to extend it, but as it stands talks have not advanced. Chelsea have made it clear to their squad that players unwilling to sign new deals will be sold. highlighted by the departures of Mason Mount and Mateo Kovacic this summer.Liverpool have been focussing on overhauling their midfield this summer and with Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai already signed, they are now also looking at defensive options and a new centre-half is in their sights and Colwill is in their sights.
