Reece James is in line for a new contract at Chelsea.

The Telegraph says Chelsea are preparing to reward Tammy Abraham and James with new contracts following the progress the duo have made this year.

Abraham bagged twice in Chelsea's 3-2 win at Norwich over the weekend, boosting his chances of being their main man up front this season.

James, meanwhile, has been kept on as Cesar Azpilicueta's understudy having impressed Frank Lampard and shrugged off competition from Davide Zappacosta.

Chelsea are hoping to tie the duo down for the long-term future as Lampard embarks on his reign at Stamford Bridge.
