One for the future arrives today and that is 18-year-old goalkeeper Eddie Beach, as officially confirmed on the Chelsea website.

Beach, who was previously at Southampton, is a Wales Under-19 international and has a very bright future ahead of him.

At the same time, Chelsea confirmed that young goalkeeper Lucas Bergstorm is heading out on loan to Peterbrough this season.

Business is getting done, and hopefully this will kick-start the rest of the moves in the senior setup to support Thomas Tuchel’s squad rebuild this summer.

Boehly is expected to be fully behind Tuchel and backing him in the transfer market.
