CHELSEA fans have demanded that Reece James be named captain.

That’s after the defender issued a brutal Twitter transfer response to an Arsenal fan.

The ace is staying loyal to Chelsea after seeing Kai Havertz and Mason Mount jump ship
James, 23, is already a favourite among Stamford Bridge supporters thanks to his never-say-die attitude, as well as his physical and technical prowess.

He committed his future to the club on a six-year contract in September.
And while the likes of Mason Mount and Kai Havertz have cleared off to direct Premier League rivals, James has remained to help Mauricio Pochettino deliver the goods next season.
But James further endeared himself to Chelsea fans when he became tangled in a Twitter exchange with a Gooner.

The Arsenal fan, who saw Blues forward Kai Havertz join his club for £65 million this week, tweeted: “Reece James to Arsenal, who says no?”

This prompted a hilarious and brutal reply from James, who thundered: “I say no.”
Chelsea’s official account then jumped in on the action, posting a picture of James celebrating in front of Arsenal fans while writing: “One of our own.”
And supporters quickly gathered around the England right-back, calling for him to become Chelsea’s new captain.

One said: “For life, our future and captain.”
Another declared: “Definition of ‘Proper Chels’.”
One noted: “Chelsea through and through.”
Another added: “Make him the captain right now.”
James becoming skipper could soon be a reality, with SunSport revealing current captain Cesar Azpilicueta is set to Inter Milan on a free transfer.

It certainly won’t be fellow academy graduate Mount, who is now on the verge of joining Manchester United for £60m.
Chelsea and the Red Devils returned to the negotiating table after reaching an impasse in talks.
And Mount, who rejected several contract offers from his boyhood club, will now link up with Harry Maguire and Co at Old Trafford.
