The Chairboys are delighted to have signed former Chelsea youth player Jack Wakely on a two-year deal.

The 20-year-old centre-back has impressed during pre-season, playing in friendly matches against Chesham United and Aylesbury United earlier this month, as well as yesterday’s match against Leicester City which saw the return of fans.

Wakely, who hails from High Wycombe, joined the Chelsea Academy at a young age, signing his first professional contract with the West London club in 2017. He featured for Chelsea’s development squad 18 times during their 2019/20 title-winning campaign, before being sent out on loan to Brighton’s under-23 side.

He will wear shirt number 21.
