Baba Rahman joins Reading on loan

Earlier, Sports Brief reported that Ghana defender, Abdul Baba Rahman, has joined English Championship side, Reading FC on a season-long loan from Chelsea.

Rahman joined Chelsea in 2015 and has had little chance to impress with the Blues as he has spent most of his time on-loan.

It was expected that the left-back will move out on loan again this season after he was left-out of Chelsea's League and Champions League squad.
