Who is Ethan Ampadu, how old is the Chelsea ace playing on-loan at RB Leipzig in the Champions League against Tottenham?
ETHAN AMPADU may still be waiting for his first Premier League start for Chelsea.
But that has not stopped him from lining up alongside Gareth Bale and Aaron Ramsey for Wales.
Who is Ethan Ampadu?
The 17-year-old, born 14 September 2000, is a defensive midfielder.
He is the son of former lower league player Kwame Ampadu, who came through the ranks at Arsenal before having spells at West Brom, Swansea, Leyton Orient and Exeter City.
Ethan is a product of the Exeter academy, making his debut aged just 15 years, 10 months and 26 days – the club’s youngest ever player.
He was named man of the match in that match, a League Cup tie against Brentford.
Ampadu joined Chelsea in July 2017, and has so far made seven competitive appearances for the Blues.
