Akin Famewo joins Charlton Athletic on season-long loan

Norwich City defender Akin Famewo has completed a season-long loan to Charlton Athletic.

As part of the deal, Charlton will have an option to make the transfer permanent.

The Lewisham-born defender, who is comfortable at centre-half or left back, spent last season on loan at The Valley where he helped the club to seven clean sheets in his first eight games. He played 22 games for the Addicks last season as they narrowly missed out on a place in the League One play-offs.

Charlton will begin their season on August 7 at home to Sheffield Wednesday.
