Pochettino wants to build the 20-year-old at Stamford Bridge, but Liverpool are circling and he's snubbed contract talks due to doubts over the Chelsea 'project'.
Chelsea star Levi Colwill has refused to enter into negotiations over a new contract at Chelsea as he remains unconvinced by the ‘project’ at Stamford Bridge.
The Seagulls reportedly had a £30m bid for Colwill rejected after a report in May revealed new Blues boss Mauricio Pochettino saw him as one of the players he hopes to build around at Stamford Bridge.and Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola also said to be an admirer. It’s for that reason that he’s so far snubbed any talks over a contract extension at Stamford Bridge, with his current deal set to expire in 2025.
“It is not about the salary it’s more about the project. Levi Colwill doesn’t want to be a backup player, he wants to be an important player. He wants to have kind of guaranteed game time, he wants to feel important, otherwise he would be prepared to move, but the reality is also that Chelsea have no intention to negotiate.
