DONE DEAL: Chelsea striker Ugbo joins MK Dons on loan

Chelsea striker Ike Ugbo has joined MK Dons on loan, just a day after being recalled from his spell at Barnsley.

The 19-year-old scored just once in 18 appearances for the Tykes.

"Ike was one of our main targets during the summer but he went to the Championship," said Barnsley manager Robbie Neilson.

"We're really pleased, though, that it is worked out for us in January.

"He will definitely add a lot to the team – he's a natural finisher but he's also got great link play and good pace and physicality."
