Premier League giants Chelsea are keeping tabs on Millwall teenager Christian Mbulu, reports say.
The Lions, currently fifth in League One after a fine run, secured Mbulu’s signature on a one-year professional contract in early August.
Mbulu, a promising defender who has been compared with Manchester United’s Chris Smalling, made the switch from non-league club Brentwood Town last summer.

The 19-year-old is rated highly by the hierarchy at the Den and has featured heavily at an U21 level.
According to the Sun, reigning Premier League champions are tracking the defender.
A major overhaul in the Blues’ squad is expected this summer with Champions League football virtually ruled out after the club’s dire start to the campaign.
