Football News Update: Burton Albion Sign Chelsea’s Dylan Williams on Season-Long Loan
In the latest Football News, Burton Albion have secured the signing of Chelsea’s Dylan Williams on a season-long loan deal. This marks the Brewers’ 12th addition to their squad during the summer transfer window.
The 20-year-old full-back, who previously played for Derby County, has joined the Pirelli Stadium with the view to a permanent contract at the end of the season. Williams left Derby for Stamford Bridge when the Rams were in administration back in 2022.
The young defender is reunited with former Chelsea Under-21 boss Mark Robinson, who is now leading the Brewers. Speaking to the club’s website, Williams expressed his delight at the move, saying, “>I was with Mark at Chelsea and he’s such a great guy, he’s probably one of the most honest guys I’ve ever met.”
Despite his time at Chelsea, Williams is yet to make a senior appearance for the Premier League giants. This loan move to Burton Albion will provide him with the opportunity to gain valuable first-team experience and potentially secure a permanent switch in the future.
As the football season gears up, this latest transfer news will undoubtedly be of interest to fans of the EFL Championship and the Premier League alike.
