Goalkeeper Jamal Blackman has joined Swedish club Ostersunds FK on loan from Chelsea until the end of May.

The 22-year-old made his senior debut during a loan spell at Middlesbrough last season but did not feature in the league during his time in Teesside.

Blackman has impressed for Chelsea at youth and Under-21 levels, winning the FA Youth Cup in 2012 and Under-21 Premier League title in 2014.

He becomes the second Blues youngster this week to head to Scandinavia on loan, with defender Alex Davey, 21, having joined Norwegian club Stabaek Fotball until July.
