He’s had a memorable meeting with Mohamed Diame.

Now Ben Chilwell is hoping to add to his footballing CV with Huddersfield Town.

The 18-year-old left-back is on loan from Leicester City until January 3.

His stay takes in nine Championship games, starting with Sheffield Wednesday away.

England Under 20 skipper Chilwell knows he has competition in the shape of Australian international Jason Davidson.

But he’s ready for the challenge and desperate to add to his Capital One Cup fourth-round outing at Hull, who won 5-4 on penalties after a 1-1 draw.

“I really enjoyed my Leicester debut, it was a great experience,” said Chilwell.

“I was up against a very good and physical player in Mohamed Diame.

“It was a real test for me, but I think I grew into the game.

“And I am definitely ready for another crack at first-team football.”

Chilwell, from Milton Keynes, has a fine record in junior and development football.

Originally with Rushden and Diamonds, until they folded, he signed for Leicester at 13.

He has played for England at Under 18, 19 and 20 level and was added to the squad for Monday’s Euro Under 21 qualifier against Switzerland at Brighton, although he didn’t feature in Gareth Southgate’s final selection for the 3-1 victory.

Impressive performances for Leicester at Under 21 level led to his senior debut and inclusion in first-team training sessions under Claudio Ranieri.

The charismatic Italian was keen for Chilwell to join Town on temporary terms.

Ben Chilwell training with Huddersfield Town

“I’ve played a lot of Under 21 football, but I need to step up to men’s level,” he explained.

“The gaffer at Leicester spoke to me and said he wanted me to go to a Championship side.

“When Huddersfield showed an interest, it was a no-brainer.”

Chilwell says the presence of new head coach David Wagner at Town was another pull.

“I really liked what I was told about the style he wants to apply,” he added.

“He told me about how he wants me to play, the positions he wants me to take up.

“It’s all quite different to Leicester, where we sat deep and played on the counter.

“Here, as soon as you lose the ball, you must quickly try to win it back.

“If you can’t, you must get back into a compact shape.

“It’s about breaking fast with forward runs.

“And as a full-back, you have to get up and down the line.

“The system relies on everyone doing their job properly, and that includes supporting other players and covering them.

“Everyone has to accept the system and be comfortable with it.

“It’s more complicated than I’ve made it sound, but it’s also an exciting brand of football.

“It’s different, and it will be good for me to experience a different club and different teammates and tactics.”
