Chelsea talent Jessy Derry is close to joining Portuguese giants Sporting CP on a season-long loan.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Sporting have agreed to cover his salary with no buy option included, which suggests the move is to prioritise the young winger’s development.
Before heading to Portugal, the 19-year-old has committed his future to Chelsea by signing a new six-year contract that will keep him at Stamford Bridge until 2032.
He’s regarded as one of the Blues’ brightest talents and will hope he can do enough to earn a spot in the first team when he returns at the end of the season.
Derry came into the first team with plenty of fanfare following his impressive performances in the Chelsea academy.
