Nathaniel Chalobah close to Burnley move?

Chelsea midfielder Nathaniel Chalobah is reportedly closing on a loan move to Burnley.

The 19-year-old is highly rated at Stamford Bridge and has been tipped for a future first-team role.

However, it is understood that Blues boss Jose Mourinho believes that the teenager's education would be best served by another loan spell.

According to Sky Sports News, Burnley have won the race and will announce the signing shortly.

Chalobah has previously had loan spells with Watford, Middlesbrough and Nottingham Forest.
