Chelsea officially confirms deal for brilliantly gifted attacking midfielder
Leo Castledine has completed a season-long loan move to Shrewsbury Town after Chelsea made the decision to allow the young man to gain some much needed first team minutes for the next 12 months
Castledine is rated as one of the most talented young players that the club have in that youth squads – but with all the changes that has been happening over the past few months – there is no space in the first team squad to get his chance.
That meant that the decision was made to allow him to go out on loan, and Shrewsbury Town quickly made the decision to get a deal done and after getting the move announced – the Blues have wished the lad all the best
CHELSEA posted on the club website: ‘Leo, an Academy graduate, made his debut for our senior team in January when he came off the bench during our Carabao Cup victory against Middlesbrough.
‘Leo has been a regular for our Under-21 side in each of the past two seasons. This is the 19-year-old midfielder’s first loan move and he joins a side bottom of the embryonic League One table with three games played.
‘We wish Leo well in Shropshire and look forward to monitoring and supporting his progress in the months ahead.
‘Good luck, Leo!’
