In a video shared on social media that has since gained popularity, Uchendu was spotted playing peek-a-boo with the World Cup winner.

Uchendu has garnered thousands of fans on social media; he has over 50,000 followers on Instagram alone.

Some players have shared his videos while other news networks have spoken to his parents about his potential at his age.

Uchendu and his parents live in Canada but travelled to the United States to watch their favourite team Chelsea play in pre-season friendlies.

Meanwhile, the Blues will be hoping to recover from their poor campaign as they prepare for the 2023/24 season.

Hudson-Odoi set to leave Chelsea

Earlier, Sports Brief reported that Chelsea winger, Callum Hudson-Odoi has reportedly agreed personal terms with Fulham ahead of a possible summer move.

Hudson-Odoi is among a number of Chelsea stars believed to be on their way out of Stamford Bridge after the club oversaw a massive summer overhaul in recent weeks.

The Blues have embarked on a rebuilding mission under new boss, Mauricio Pochettino, with the move seeing a number of high-profile players axed.

Mudryk scores first Chelsea goal

Mykhailo Mudryk has finally scored his first goal for Chelsea since he joined them during the January transfer window.

The Ukrainian youngster sealed a sensational summer move to Stamford Bridge from Shakhtar Donetsk for £88m.

Despite the huge transfer fees paid for his services, Mudryk failed to live up to his price tag in his debut season in the Premier League for Chelsea.
