Youth prospects are the hot topic at Chelsea this summer, and none are being spoken about more than young right-back Dujon Sterling. And after the youngster was pictured training with the Chelsea first-team out in Ireland, excitement levels started to rise among Chelsea fans.

The 19-year-old full-back has come off the back of a season-long loan spell at League One side Coventry City last season.
The loan spell proved hugely successful with the defender making 40 appearances in all competitions last season, as the Sky Blues finished just outside the League One play-off places.
With Lampard’s promise to give youth more of a chance and the speculation surrounding Davide Zappacosta’s future, Sterling could yet be promoted to the first-team for next season.
Here is a selection of responses from fans, who seem excited at the sight of Sterling training with the first-team:
Give it your all, be good to see you in the first team!
