Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham has signed a new five-year contract at Stamford Bridge and joined Swansea City on a season-long loan deal.

The 19-year-old will link up with Swans boss Paul Clement, who worked as Blues coach from 2007 to 2011.

Abraham scored 26 goals in 48 games on loan at Championship side Bristol City last season.

He also netted once in four games as England's under-21s reached the semi-finals of the European Championship.

Meanwhile, Malaga have signed Swansea striker Borja Baston on a season-long loan deal.

The 24-year-old Spaniard joined Swansea for a club record £15.5m fee from Atletico Madrid in August 2016, but has only scored once for the Premier League club.
