Chelsea take Wrexham wonderkid Davies on trial in bid to boost youth team

 The youngster is the latest talent to get his chance to impress at Cobham Training Centre, with the Blues looking for a left-sided full-back

Chelsea have taken Wrexham's 16-year-old left-back Daniel Davies on a week-long trial amid a six-month-long aim to fill a gap in their academy.

This summer's youth exodus has left Chelsea searching for players from non-league teams, with several being considered or signed in recent weeks.

Davies has had trial offers from Liverpool, Brighton and Stoke City, with more clubs likely to come to the table - but the Blues are currently at the front of the queue. There would be no compensation due should Chelsea go ahead and offer him a contract.
