Emenalo joined Chelsea’s Academy at Under-8s level, before spending time at Monaco and returning to the Blues as an Under-13. While progressing through the ranks at Cobham, he has shown himself to be a composed and intelligent player, who thrives under pressure in high-intensity moments.

He made his Under-21s debut as a schoolboy in the 2023/24 Premier League Cup. After signing his scholarship ahead of 2024/25, Emenalo turned professional in January 2025 and quickly became a regular for our Under-21s across all competitions, primarily as a left-back. That has continued into this season, when he has also featured for the younger age groups in the UEFA Youth League and FA Youth Cup.

The 18-year-old has also been involved with the men’s first team, appearing on the bench for last season’s UEFA Conference League fixture against Legia Warsaw and the Premier League trip to Liverpool, as well as the UEFA Champions League win over Pafos in the current campaign.

In international football, Emenalo has previously represented the USA at youth level and, more recently, England’s Under-18s team.

Congratulations, Landon!
