Former defender Frank Sinclair says that academy graduate Billy Gilmour can become a Chelsea legend, providing that he continues to be given first-team opportunities.

Former defender Frank Sinclair has said that Billy Gilmour has the ability to become a Chelsea legend in the future.

Before the coronavirus outbreak, the academy graduate produced two man-of-the-match performances as Chelsea defeated Liverpool and Everton in the space of five days.

While it remains to be seen whether the 18-year-old will continue to be handed regular opportunities when football eventually resumes, Sinclair has talked up the chances of the Scot becoming a permanent fixture in the starting lineup.

Sinclair told GentingBet: "Billy Gilmour has got what it takes to make it at Chelsea and he's got an incredible future at the club – I'd put him up there as being a real Chelsea great if he gets the opportunity to play regular football for Chelsea.

"Before he even arrived in the first team this season, I was well aware of how highly he was rated after listening to what was coming out from the academy coaches on their analysis of the player. Everyone is fully aware as to how good he has been since he joined the football club."

Sinclair spent eight years at the West Londoners between 1990 and 1998, making a total of 218 appearances in all competitions.
