Chelsea youngster Ethan Ampadu is on the verge of signing for RB Leipzig on a season-long loan deal, according to the Guardian.
The Wales international has impressed when given the opportunity at Chelsea, but needs to be playing first-team football on the regular in order to develop into the player he is seemingly destined to become.
It looks as though Ampadu will be getting the loan that he craves, with the Guardian reporting that his loan move to Bundesliga outfit RB Leipzig is now as good as done.
Ampadu has already undergone a medical ahead of the deal’s completion, as per the Guardian’s report, which suggests that official announcement could come as soon as today.
RB Leipzig are a forward thinking club with an innovative manager. It’s the perfect place for Ampadu to develop, if he is given sufficient chances to feature from the start.
This really could be the making of the 18-year-old, who is one of the most promising players in his age group we’ve seen at Chelsea for many a year.
