Sports Nicknames - The Beast

Reece James is a football player who plays in the right back position for the England national team and Chelsea FC.



Nicknamed "The Beast" by his teammates because of his brute forcefulness when he challenges opponents, Reece James is a product of the Chelsea youth program. He was promoted to the first team in 2019 and debuted for the England national team in 2020.

James comes from a football family with his father being a coach and his sister also a star player for the Chelsea women first team. He is an elite right back and one of the best in the world in his position.

Reece James is physically strong, athletic and uses his fast pace to get into crossing positions on the attack. On defense, he is a potent force facing wingers and can carry himself with the best of them.

James has been at Chelsea since the age of six and has spent most of the time playing alongside Mason Mount, another Chelsea young star. He is a wing-back partner with Ben Chilwell for both club and country.
