The Blues centre-half is stuck in the club's loan system but will make his first move to La Liga

US men's national team defender Matt Miazga has completed a season-long loan deal from Chelsea to Alaves until June 2022.

The Liga club will also have an option to buy the 26-year-old, who embarks on his fifth loan in his fifth different country.

It comes with Miazga having made just two appearances for the Blues since his £3.5 million ($5 million) transfer from New York Red Bulls in 2016.
