Chelsea looking to bid for Charlton goalkeeper James Beadle

Chelsea scouts were tracking James Beadle for some time.

Chelsea are now making a move for Charlton Athletic goalkeeper James Beadle. Chelsea scouts were tracking this young kid for some time. Blues Scouts believe that 17-year-old player has the potential to become a future prospect for the first team, according to The Sun.

They are set to pounce as he makes his breakthrough at the under-21 level for England. League One Charlton are in a good position because of Beadle’s contract status. They could lose him for a nominal sum, with the shot-stopper not being on professional terms.

Addicks chiefs are desperate for a fee for teen prodigy and will fight for compensation. They are optimistic to pocket around £400,000, plus extras for the 17-year-old goalkeeper.
