Chelsea have now confirmed that summer signing Caleb Wiley has joined French side Strasbourg for the season – as they want him to get some much needed game time over the next 12 months.

The club made the shock announcement last month that Wiley was the clubs seventh summer signing of the summer – and the left-back joined up with his new side after the Olympic games in Paris.

However – after being at the club for the past few weeks – the decision from the board has now been made and the summer signing will spend the season at French side Strasbourg.

Chelsea posted on the club website: ‘ CHELSEA defender Caleb Wiley has completed a season-long loan move to Ligue 1 side Strasbourg.

‘The 19-year-old joined the Blues last month from Atlanta United before representing the USA at the Olympic Games in Paris.

‘Caleb will now join up with Strasbourg for the forthcoming campaign. We look forward to supporting his development throughout the season.

‘Good luck, Caleb.’

Ahead of his arrival at Stamford Bridge – former coach Gonzalo Pineda has admitted that the lad has some serious talent: ‘What I see from Caleb is this passion,’ Gonzalo Pineda said. ‘Of course, the amazing talent he has, but the passion, energy and maturity he has in his game.’
