Brighton manager Graham Potter has lavished praise on youngster Tariq Lamptey.
The 19-year-old has been singled out as a huge prospect, and could even make the England squad in the coming months.
Lamptey is a right wing back who many Chelsea fans are now watching with envy, regretting the club's decision to sell him.
And his current boss Potter is impressed with him, both as a player and person.
"As impressive as he is in terms of his footballing ability, as a person I think he's a fantastic role model," said Potter to reporters.
"There's a perception that you have to be a certain way to succeed in this cynical, horrible world we live in.
"But he's the opposite in terms of just a really, really nice, down-to-earth kid that wants to learn, wants to improve, wants to help the team. He's been fantastic.
"I think he's got a long way to go to reach his potential, to reach his maximum, which is normal.
"But he's got attributes that are really exciting and they are not so common. I'm talking about of course his speed, but it's also his courage, it's his intelligence, it's his interpersonal skills, how he is as a lad.
"It's not so easy to find those guys and he's important for us."
