Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho has identified young trio Isaiah Brown, Dominic Solanke and Lewis Baker as future England stars.
Mourinho has given England Under-17 European Championship-winners midfielder Brown and striker Solanke their chances to impress on Chelsea's pre-season tour, while midfielder Baker is set to be promoted to the first-team squad.
Mourinho said: "If, in a few years, Baker, Brown and Solanke are not national team players, I should blame myself.
"They are part of a process the club started without me, during that period before I came back.
"But now I have players who will be Chelsea players. And when they become Chelsea players, they will become England players, almost for sure.
"I'm not saying we're doing it just for English football, because it is also about us."
