Leading clubs are monitoring Kiano Dyer’s situation at Chelsea.

The England Under-19 international has been a stand out performer this season culminating in being named the Premier League Two’s player of the month last week.

His progress has also been recognised by Chelsea coach Enzo Maresca who called him into the first-team squad for the Europa Conference League tie with Gent.

However, the 17-year-old, who is the son of former Leicester City and West Bromwich Albion winger Lloyd Dyer, is coming to a crucial stage in his young career where he will only have one-year left on contract by the summer.

A technical, all-round midfielder, Dyer was signed from West Brom’s academy and is considered a bright prospect for Chelsea’s first team but the pathway towards regular game time at that level is congested and that is alerting rival clubs willing to give him a greater chance of first-team football.

Scouts from home and abroad are following developments and are due to watch him for England U19s in Bulgaria this week for their European Championship qualifiers against Lithuania, Bulgaria and Belgium.

Chelsea have been actively snapping up top young talents from across the globe but were stung by the recent departure of highly-rated Rio Nguhoma to Liverpool. The 16-year-old was training with Arne Slot’s first team last week just to compound the loss felt by Chelsea.

As they work on their business template of having the best young talent across all of their sides they will not want to lose such a promising player as Dyer.

Talking after receiving his Premier League Two award, Dyer said: ‘I’ve been working hard since the start of the season and it’s great to see my work recognised. In October, I felt I was putting in strong performances and helping the team as much as I could.

‘I would like to thank everyone who has supported me since the start of the season.’
