Chelsea loan teenager Traore to Vitesse Arnhem

Chelsea have loaned recently-arrived teenager Bertrand Traore to Vitesse Arnhem until the end of the season. Dutch side Vitesse, who currently sit second in the Eredivisie, are likely to offer the 18-year-old midfielder, an international with Burkina Faso, first-team opportunities.

A statement on the Chelsea website read: "Traore signed for Chelsea following a successful trial period with the club during the summer, and now heads to the Netherlands to gain first-team experience.

"Traore will link up with a Vitesse side which is currently second in the Eredivisie, on the same points as leaders Ajax."
