Chelsea full-back Williams joins Burton on loan

Dylan Williams featured for Chelsea's Under-21 side in the EFL Trophy in the past two seasons

Burton Albion have made Chelsea's Dylan Williams their 12th signing of the summer with the full-back joining on a season-long loan.

The Brewers have brought the 20-year-old to the Pirelli Stadium with the view to signing the former Derby County defender on a permanent contract at the end of the season.

Williams, who left Burton's near neighbours for Stamford Bridge when the Rams were in administration in 2022, is reunited with former Chelsea Under-21 boss Mark Robinson.

"I was with Mark at Chelsea and he’s such a great guy, he’s probably one of the most honest guys I’ve ever met," Williams told the club website.

In his time at Chelsea, Williams did not make a senior appearance for the club.
