Aston Villa have completed the shock signing of Chelsea midfielder Ross Barkley on a season-long loan deal on Wednesday morning.
Chelsea manager Frank Lampard played Barkley 31 times in all competitions last season but, following the signings of £89million Kai Havertz and £38m Hakim Ziyech in midfield this summer, the Blues boss has decided to let Barkley leave the club.
Barkley, 26, had only featured from the bench twice in the Premier League this season and, seemingly surplus to requirements, he now joins up with manager Dean Smith and assistant John Terry at Villa Park for the remainder of the 2020-21 campaign.
Do you think he’ll be a good signing for the Clarets?
