Chelsea youngster joins Bees on loan
Brentford have signed midfielder George Saville on loan from Chelsea until January.
Saville, 20, ended last season on loan at Millwall and Chelsea are keen for him to have a spell of regular first-team football this term.
The signing is a coup for Brentford, as a number of League One clubs were keen on the youngster, who has been a key player for Chelsea’s Under-21 side.
“George has been on our radar for a long while and when the opportunity arose to secure him on loan until at least early January we had absolutely no hesitation,” said Brentford sporting director Mark Warburton.
Meanwhile, the Bees have completed the signing of Alan McCormack on a two-year deal.
