Chelsea starlet McEachran: Swansea just like watching Barcelona

Chelsea midfielder Josh McEachran says he's joined the Premier League's version of Barcelona in Swansea City.

The 18-year-old midfielder drew interest from Bolton, Aston Villa and Wigan, but could not turn down the chance to be part of Swansea's stylish midfield.

He said: "I had a few options, but I thought Swansea would be the best club for me with their style of play.

"I watched them beat Arsenal last week - it is just like watching Barcelona, really. They have done really well. I can't wait to play for them."
