RB Leipzig defender Ethan Ampadu banking on Chelsea future

RB Leipzig defender Ethan Ampadu is keen to resume his Chelsea career next season.

He started in Leipzig's 1-0 win at Tottenham in the Champions League last 16 first-leg clash - just the second time he has been named in Julian Nagelsmann's starting XI.

"I am always watching Chelsea and seeing what is going on," he said. "It is good to see the young players are shining at the moment.

"They are in the top four so fingers crossed they can hold on to that. I would like to go back, I aim to, but right now I am focused on Leipzig and finishing the season."
