‘I eventually spoke to someone about it and found it helped a lot.
‘In football especially people don’t like to show weakness. But talking about difficulties or problems in your life with others is important.
‘Everyone is going through something and hopefully, someone has seen this tweet and feels they are able to talk to someone about something troubling them, where they felt they couldn’t before.’
Chilwell’s message on the Instagram story was accompanied by a note that read: ‘I think it’s important we all talk on this topic, especially with everything going on at the moment.’
The former Leicester fullback has featured in seven games for the Blues out of which five of them have a clean sheet- three in the last three games. Since he has recovered from a foot injury that he suffered and got a setback, Chilwell has impressed by contributing a goal and completing three assists as well.
