Chelsea’s Kasey Palmer joins Blackburn Rovers on a season-long loan

Chelsea midfielder Kasey Palmer has joined Blackburn Rovers on loan until the end of the season.

The 21-year-old is the third arrival at Ewood Park this summer, following on from the permanent captures of Joe Rothwell from Oxford United and Manchester City midfielder Jacob Davenport.

Palmer was part of the Huddersfield Town team which earned promotion to the Premier League in 2016/17.

He appeared 31 times for the Terriers that season and played his part in their rise to the top flight for the first time, as he weighed in with four goals and a number of assists during his time with David Wagner’s outfit.
