Chelsea sign teenage goalkeeper Sharman-Lowe after getting Cech's tick of approval

The Blues have expanded their pool of shot-stoppers with one eye very much on the future

Chelsea have stuck a deal with League One club Burton Albion to sign 17-year-old goalkeeper Teddy Sharman-Lowe.

The England Under-19 international joins the Blues for an undisclosed fee but will remain at Burton on a season-long loan.

Sharman-Lowe joined the Brewers in 2017 from Leicester and enjoyed a breakout 2019-20 campaign as he was called up to Burton's first-team and attracted the attention of England's youth scouts.
