Caleb Wiley joined Atlanta United’s youth system when he was just 11 years old and made his professional debut in early 2022. He has signed a six-year contract with the English side.
Chelsea have been quite aggressive in signing young talent from America recently. Previously, the club had already officially signed Andrey Santos, Ângelo, Estevão and Kendry Páez. The latter two will only join the team when they turn 18.
