Former Chelsea football chief Frank Arnesen has spoken of two players he had hoped would make it big at the club.

Gael Kakuta and Josh McEachran were two hopefuls whose Chelsea careers did not pan out as Arnesen hoped.

"Kakuta came on at Stamford Bridge [against Wolves in 2009] and the crowd were on their feet for 20 minutes," he told the Daily Mail.

"The next three months he was never on the bench. Sometimes he saw things the other players didn't see.

"Josh I loved very much. I expected much more from him. He was a very, very good player. Intelligent."

Kakuta is currently on the books of Amiens, while McEachran is with Birmingham City.
