16 Year Old Chelsea Player Travels To The Acon

Didier Drogba. Soloman Kalou. Bertrand Traore. These are the Chelsea players that will be at the African Cup of Nations (ACON).

Wait, Bertrand Traore? The little known 16 year-old from Burkina Faso has been chosen to represent his country and will become the fourth youngest player in the tournaments history if he plays. In fact, Traore could be playing against Drogba and Kalou as Burkina Faso meet Ivory Coast in the group phase.

The midfielder, who joined Chelsea over Manchester United, played his first international in a friendly three days before his 16th birthday.

This has got The Chelsea Chiefs intrigued so we’ll be following the youngster during the tournament.
