Norway U17 coach Gunnar Halle admits he's delighted with the progress of Bryan Fiabema.

The former Tromso attacker, 17, is currently starring with Chelsea's U23 team.

Former Leeds United star Halle told VG: "He had a slightly tough start. Not everything went smoothly at once. A new place to live, new players and coaches to deal with, it's not easy. But he has worked really hard all the way, earned the chances he has been given, and shown that he has something to risk despite a difficult period."

Fiabema was training with the first team at Chelsea during international week.

Halle added: "It indicates that he has done a lot well in the last six months."
