Premier League club Chelsea has confirmed that the son of Michael Emenalo, Landon Emenalo, has pledged his future to the team by signing a new long-term contract.
The club confirmed this in a statement released on its official website.
Emenalo is eligible to play for the United States, Nigeria, or England at the senior level.
Michael Emenalo, Landon’s father, is Nigeria’s former international left-back, who made a significant impact for the Super Eagles during their inaugural World Cup appearance.
The new contract will ensure that Landon Emenalo remains with the Blues until at least the conclusion of the 2030–2031 season.
A product of the Chelsea academy, Landon joined the club at the U8 level, later spent time at Monaco, and returned to Chelsea at the U13 level.
At 18 years old, he was part of Chelsea’s intake of scholars for the 2024–2025 season and signed his first professional contract in January 2025.
This season, Emenalo has participated in various competitions for Chelsea, including the U18 Premier League, Premier League 2, Premier League International Cup, FA Youth Cup, UEFA Youth League, and EFL Trophy.
Although he has not yet made his senior debut, the left-back has received three call-ups for official matches, including games against Pafos (Champions League), Legia Warsaw (Conference League), and Liverpool (Premier League).
The Arizona native has represented youth teams for both England and the United States.
