# Chelsea: Fans are going wild as Ben Chilwell poses with Ashley Cole on Instagram

**Ben Chilwell has already made a huge impact on many Chelsea fans following his latest post on Instagram.**

The 23-year-old has shown off his latest Chelsea experience by posing with Stamford Bridge legend Ashley Cole. He has captioned the post with a heartwarming message, saying: “Great afternoon spent chatting to this legend! Hopefully I can have a career like yours at this amazing club.”

The former Leicester man became one of the club’s latest signings after Chelsea met the Foxes’ £50m asking price (via [Sky Sports](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11668/12056806/ben-chilwell-chelsea-complete-50m-signing-of-leicester-left-back-on-five-year-deal)). Adding Chilwell to the roster could mean he will usurp veteran Marcos Alonso, who has [been linked with an exit](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/chelsea-fc-transfer-rumours/chelsea-juventus-propose-two-player-swap-deal-plus-cash-for-jorginho-and-marcos-alonso/).

Frank Lampard hasn’t held back on the transfer market in this window and he doesn’t seem to be slowing down any time soon either. A move for Kai Havertz is [all but wrapped up](https://talksport.com/football/754400/kai-havertz-transfer-chelsea-agree-deal-sign-malang-sarr-leverkusen-loan/) and the Blues are also still [eyeing West Ham’s Declan Rice.](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/chelsea-fc-transfer-rumours/west-ham-change-their-mind-over-declan-rice-chelsea-transfer/) A goalkeeper is another priority of Lampard’s as the manager has [lost faith](https://www.goal.com/en-ie/news/kepa-on-his-way-out-of-chelsea-after-fall-out-with-lampard/1wknshomybz0f1lcwrok5sxlri) in the ability of Kepa Arrizabalaga.
