Richard Cawley reports, ‘we know it is a familiar tale that top academy products are lured away before they sign professional terms. Chetam Ezenwata is the latest one.
The 16-year-old defender, touted for a big future in the
game, announced on his social media that he has joined Brighton. The Seagulls
also landed goalkeeper James Beadle from the Addicks in January 2022.
Ezenwata won the 2026 Steve Clarke Trophy at Charlton, which
recognises outstanding progress at U16 level.
“After five unforgettable years with this great club, it’s
now time for me to open the next chapter of my story,” said the teenager on his
Instagram. “To all my coaches, the staff, my amazing team-mates - with whom I
have formed some unbreakable bonds over the years - and all the parents and
fans that cheered us on through every win and loss, I say thank you all
immensely for being a part of my journey.”’
