The 16-year-old impressed last season, consistently featuring for West Ham\u2019s Under-18s, despite still being a schoolboy. He found the net for his first goal at that level in their away draw with Tottenham Hotspur.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" publication=\"footballlondon\">&#8220;Centre-forward Greenwood has also been added to our Under-18s squad, arriving from Wolverhampton Wanderers. He has already competed in the Under-18 Premier League, showing maturity and physicality beyond his years while scoring once in seven appearances, as well as representing England across various youth levels.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" publication=\"footballlondon\">A strong start sees Chelsea under-18s second in the south table, behind Arsenal by just a point, though they have played one game more. Their latest victory came against West Brom with Sulaiman seeing his side come from a goal down to win 4-1.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" publication=\"footballlondon\">At the start of September, the young Blues head coach spoke about the forthcoming season, among a number of other topics.<\/p>\n<p>Sky Sports discounted Premier League and EFL package<\/p>\n<p>This article contains affiliate links, we will receive a commission on any sales we generate from it. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.football.london\/affiliates\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Learn more<\/a><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/1760439497_599_0_Sky-Factbox.jpg\" alt=\"Content Image\" fetchpriority=\"auto\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\u00a349<\/p>\n<p>\u00a335<\/p>\n<p>Sky<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"AffiliateContent_content-buy-btn__xWiVO buy-btn\" aria-label=\"Buy button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.awin1.com\/cread.php?awinmid=11005&amp;awinaffid=213635&amp;campaign=&amp;clickref=Regionals-FootballLondon&amp;ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sky.com%2Fdeals&amp;platform=pl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noreferrer noopener\">Get Sky Sports here<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Sky has slashed the price of its <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.awin1.com\/cread.php?awinmid=11005&amp;awinaffid=213635&amp;campaign=&amp;clickref=Regionals-FootballLondon&amp;ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.sky.com%2Fdeals&amp;platform=pl\" target=\"_self\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Essential TV and Sky Sports<\/a> bundle for the 2025\/26 season, saving members \u00a3336 and offering more than 1,400 live matches across the Premier League, EFL and more.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\">Sky will show at least 215 live Premier League games this season, an increase of up to 100 more.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" publication=\"footballlondon\">&#8220;I\u2019ve really enjoyed the start of the season,&#8221; he revealed as quoted by the <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.chelseafc.com\/en\/news\/article\/hassan-sulaiman-its-about-challenging-the-boys-to-be-their-best\" target=\"_self\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Chelsea website<\/a>. &#8220;It\u2019s been great to get a proper look at all the players in our current squad.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" publication=\"footballlondon\">&#8220;Naturally, we\u2019ve had a number of boys progress into the youth team. Some I already knew from last season, but it\u2019s also been valuable to see the Under-16s, and even some of the Under-15s, who spent time with us in pre-season. It\u2019s been a fantastic opportunity to get eyes on them and assess their future potential.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" publication=\"footballlondon\">&#8220;We\u2019ve only had a handful of games so far, but the biggest positive has been seeing the overall potential of the group. Every year we welcome a new cohort and there\u2019s always excitement about what they might bring. This season is about making sure we challenge them and get the very best out of them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" publication=\"footballlondon\">On the values he wants to see from his team, which now includes Ebho and Greenwood, he added: &#8220;As an academy, our values are really important.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" publication=\"footballlondon\">&#8220;First and foremost, we want the boys to be brave.
