Marco van Ginkel has signed a new contract at Chelsea until June 2019 and will rejoin PSV Eindhoven on loan in January, the Premier League leaders have confirmed.
Van Ginkel, 24, scored eight goals in 13 Eredivisie appearances on loan at PSV in the second half of last season, helping the club to their second league title in as many years, and was set to return for another spell in the summer before a lingering knee injury scuppered the move.
But recent months have seen the midfielder step up his rehabilitation at Cobham with several appearances for Chelsea's development squad, and the Dutchman is now deemed ready to return to senior competitive action.
