Chelsea have confirmed the contract extensions of three youngsters via their website.
Highly rated midfielder Jon Russell has extended his current deal by a further year, meaning the 19-year old stays until at least next summer.
Two-footed centre back Jack Wakely who is the same age as Russell, also pens the same 1-year extension.
Meanwhile, there is a long term extension for the most high profile name of the bunch, Brian Fiabema, keeping him at the club until 2023.
The 17-year old forward was recently signed from Tromso IL in February and is a very highly rated player.
He is joined by 17-year old defender Levi Colwill, who has also signed until 2023.

These are four good deals done by Chelsea, with promising futures ahead for all of the mentioned players.
