Chelsea star Levi Colwill faces the team that he could have joined in the summer when he goes in search of the Carabao Cup. The England defender turned down interest from Liverpool and ensured that his family would have split loyalties when the Blues take on Jurgen Klopp’s outfit in Sunday’s showpiece.
After returning from an impressive loan spell at Brighton there were concerns over whether Colwill would get the opportunity to impress at Stamford Bridge this season, with Liverpool lurking as the centre-back pondered his future. However, after receiving assurances from Mauricio Pochettino he penned a new six-year contract at Chelsea.
Colwill has been a key figure under the Argentinian boss this season, often at left-back rather than his favoured role in the middle of the defence, and has a chance to prove that he made the right decision staying in London.
