Chelsea fullback Baba Rahman opens up on Reading permanent hopes

Chelsea fullback Abdul Baba Rahman admits he hopes to sign permanently with Reading.

Rahman, 28, is currently out on loan with Reading for a second consecutive campaign.

The Ghanaian defender has spent the majority of his Chelsea career out on various loan spells, making only 23 first-team Blues appearances in seven years on the club's books.

“Coming back to Reading was like coming back home. I know the lads and the management, so it was like coming home," Rahman told the Reading Chronicle.

“If the possibility comes up [to sign permanently] then why not, I'll take it, but it's the two clubs who have to deal. I am feeling at home here, I love it."

Rahman's deal runs to 2024.
