West Brom sign young defender from Chelsea

West Bromwich Albion have completed the signing of teenage defender Kyle Jameson from Chelsea.

The 18-year-old centre-back was signed by the Blues a year ago after being spotted playing for the youth side of non-League Southport. He was previously on Everton’s books.

Several clubs have been aware of Jameson’s potential availability and he recently trained with Celtic.

He has joined West Brom on a one-year deal with the option of a further deal.
