Chelsea Legend Backs Tosin as Injured Colwill’s Replacement

Chelsea legend Frank Leboeuf throws full support behind Tosin Adarabioyo as injury to Levi Colwill forces major defensive rethink for the new season

Levi Colwill’s ACL injury has left Chelsea scrambling for defensive solutions ahead of the 2025/26 campaign – www.isagoal.com reports.

Frank Leboeuf believes Tosin Adarabioyo, alongside Trevoh Chalobah, has what it takes to fill the gap, according to ESPN FC.

The Frenchman called Colwill “a real talented player with a bright future” but insists others are ready to step in.

He reminded fans that Chalobah impressed after being recalled from Crystal Palace last season.

Tosin arrived from Fulham on a free transfer last summer and quickly established himself as a reliable option.

His first year at Stamford Bridge saw him blend solid defending with attacking contributions when needed.

Now, with Colwill out for most of the season, the 27-year-old will aim to anchor Chelsea’s backline.

Leboeuf stressed, “Even Tosin can do the job,” signaling full confidence in his ability to deliver.
