Bolivian starlet Diego Suarez has been invited for a trial by Premiership champions Chelsea.
Suarez has impressed for Blooming in the Copa Libertadores and also in the South American Under 17 Championship.
His displays have caught the attention of Chelsea scouts and he now claims he has been asked to train with Jose Mourinho's side.
No date has been fixed for the trial, but the 16-year-old midfielder is relishing the chance to test his skills with The Blues.
"I really couldn't believe it when people from Chelsea approached to talk with me," Suarez told the Bolivian media.
"They told me that they are interested in me and that they would like to invite me for a trial in England.
"I think that everything is going correctly in my career, maybe too fast since the coach Alvaro Pena gave me my debut at Blooming and now the coach Oscar Villegas gave me the chance to play for the Bolivian Under 17 national team.
"To tell the truth I had never imagined that I was going to get professional football so quickly, even less that a team from Europe was going to be interested in me.
"This motivates me and gives me more confidence to improve even more. I expect to keep on working and showing my quality with the wish that I have success in the future."
