Chelsea youngster Dujon Sterling has made a loan switch to Blackpool for the rest of the season.

The 21-year-old has experienced a difficult year and a half, suffering various injuries and illnesses.

Now that he is back in full training, he is heading out on loan to continue his rehab and eventually gain regular playing time.

Blackpool confirmed the loan signing of Sterling on their official website on deadline day.

Sterling will be expected to help Blackpool avoid relegation from the Championship this season, after their promotion at the end of last term.
