Charlie Wakefield has signed a new deal with Chelsea.
The 19-year-old winger is a regular for the club's development team but struggled with injuries last term.
He confirmed the new deal on Instagram.
Wakefield, who has been with the Blues since Under-12 level, said: "Proud moment to sign a new contract with @chelseafc today.
"It's been a difficult time for me these last few months, with on and off injuries, but mentally I've stayed strong, focused and got on with the situation that I've been in, good things take time and everything happens for a reason... I'm now soon back playing.
"I feel the best I've felt and I'm ready to prove to a lot of people just how good I am, thanks for the messages and support.
"Can't wait for my season to begin."
Worthing-born Wakefield was at Brighton before making the move to Chelsea.
