(Reuters) - Defender Andreas Christensen's rapid rise at Chelsea has impressed manager Antonio Conte, who believes the 21-year-old has the talent to emulate John Terry's success at the Premier League club.

Christensen, who spent the last two seasons on loan at Borussia Monchengladbach, has gained prominence in Chelsea's first team, helping the London side maintain nine clean sheets in 20 appearances across all competitions this season.
