Football pundit, Tim Sherwood, has hailed Chelsea star, Romeo Lavia for his recent performances.
Sherwood praised the Belgium midfielder’s vision on the pitch.
Recall he joined the Blues last year in a deal worth £58 million from Southampton.
He suffered ankle and hamstring injuries last season and returned to action at the start of the current campaign.
Lavia impressed in his displays against Liverpool and Newcastle United, providing the winning assist against the latter.
Tim Sherwood has waxed lyrical about the 20-year-old star, backing him to develop into an elite-level midfielder.
Tim Sherwood said on the Seaman Says podcast (as quoted by The Chelsea Chronicle), “Lavia for me is going to be top drawer. Top, top class midfield player. I think he’s incredible. Every time he gets the ball he just looks to see where Cole [Palmer] is.”
Chelsea will next face Newcastle United in the EFL Cup on Wednesday (October 30).
