Fans have heaped praises on Chelsea defender Levi Colwill following his performances at the just concluded Euro U-21 tournament.

The 20-year-old played a key role in helping the young Lions clinch the competition, which was co-hosted by Romania and Georgia.

Colwill started every game for England U-21 side who went on to keep cleansheets in all their games enroute to the final, where they beat Spain by 1-0.

Curtis Jones' stoppage strike prior to the half-time break was enough to secure victory for England in the final.

There was a last-minute scare from opponents Spain, in stoppage time of the encounter after Colwill was adjudged to have tripped Abel Ruiz.

However, the resulting spot-kick was averted courtesy of a brilliant save from England's goalkeeper James Trafford, to clinch the title.

Overall, it was an outstanding display from the Blues' defender, who once again showed his capability to the whole footballing world.

One fan tweeted that the Chelsea defender is on a different level, after his man-of-the-match display in the final against Spain.

"Colwill man of the match. This guy is a different level wow.

The young English defender will be hoping that his recent performance at the just concluded Euro U-21 competition will be able to convince his parent club Chelsea next season.

The 20-year-old defender is expected to return to West London to join the Blues for their pre-season preparation. Colwill will also be hoping to impress new Blues head coach Maurico Pochettino with his performances.

The player is currently the subject of transfer interest from the likes of Liverpool and Brighton. However, Chelsea have maintained that Colwill isn't for sale this summer, as they consider him a part of the club's future.

His recent performance at the just concluded Euro U-21 tournament will further strengthen the Blues' stand on not wanting to part ways with the youngster this summer.
