Ghanaian youngster Ato Ampah made his debut for Chelsea in their 3-1 win over Astana in the UEFA Conference League on Thursday afternoon.
The 18-year-old, who has long been regarded for his potential, came on as a substitute for Pedro Neto in the 46th minute to mark his first appearance in European competition.
Chelsea delivered a solid performance, with goals from Marc Guiu and Renato Veiga securing all three points to strengthen their position in the group stage. Ampah’s introduction in the second half offered fans a glimpse of his exciting future, as the attacking midfielder continues to impress with his skill and maturity on the ball.
Ampah has been a key player for Chelsea’s U19 side this season, showcasing his abilities and earning a reputation within the club's youth ranks. Having joined the Blues' academy at just 10 years old, he has steadily risen through the ranks.
Born in Accra, Ampah is eligible to represent both England and Ghana at the international level, adding another layer of excitement to his already promising career.
