Jacob Hall signs first professional contract

Chelsea Football Club is pleased to announce that Academy defender Jacob Hall has signed his first professional contract with the club following his 17th birthday.

Hall has been a Blue since joining us during his Under-9s season and has developed into a composed centre-back.

While still a schoolboy during his Under-16s campaign, Hall was handed his Under-18s debut, marking an important step in his progression through the Academy.

Since signing his scholarship in July, he has gone on to make seven more appearances across Under-18s competitions this season, alongside two appearances in the Under-17 Premier League Cup.

Congratulations, Jacob!
