Pre-Chelsea career
Amin agreed to join Chelsea in January 2010, leaving his local team Lärje-Angereds IF to head to London ahead of interest from some of Europe's biggest teams
Chelsea career
A left-footed attacking midfielder with a crafty mind and good vision, he understands the game well and has a good set of physical attributes for his size. He missed much of his first year in England injured, but has pressed on towards the end of the season and put a run of games together in the Under-18s.
He made his reserve debut in April 2011 and showed a healthy improvement in his development in the first half of the 2011-12 season, showing himself to be something of a set-piece threat. He added more goals to his game after Christmas and was an important figure in the 2011-12 FA Youth Cup success.
In August 2012 he joined Dutch club Roda JC on loan for the entire 2012-13 season.
International
Amin has represented Sweden at Under-16 and Under-17 level.
