Chelsea Transfer News: Bertrand Traore completes Lyon move

Chelsea forward Bertrand Traore has completed a permanent transfer to Lyon. The Ligue 1 side have confirmed the move on their official Twitter account.

Traore was on loan at Ajax last season and the Chelsea youngster managed to score 13 goals for the Eredivisie outfit. He also helped his side reach the final of the Europa League.

The 21-year-old was considered as one of the best young talents at Chelsea but the Premier League champions cannot offer him regular first team football right now. Traore needs to play regularly in order to develop and fulfil his potential.
