Blues youngster makes Burnley loan move

By

Chelsea teenager Nathaniel Chalobah has agreed a season-long loan deal with Burnley.

It will give the 19-year-old his first taste of top-flight football after previous loan spells in the Championship with Watford, Nottingham Forest and Middlesbrough.

The England Under-21 midfielder, who signed a five-year deal with Chelsea last August, captained the Blues to FA Youth Cup glory in 2012 and has twice been an unused substitute for first-team matches.

He played against Burnley for both Forest and Boro last season and will now link up with Sean Dyche’s newly-promoted side for the rest of the campaign.
