A Chelsea youngster has signed for Reading FC.
Seventeen-year-old left-sided player Jeremiah Berkeley-Agyepong, who was at Chelsea from the age of eight, will now join the Berkshire team on a two-year deal.
The explosive winger and capable full-back played for both Chelsea and Ipswich Town across Under-18 and Under-21 levels and won the Under-15 Floodlight Cup at Stamford Bridge.
As well as his defensive prowess, Reading FC said Jeremiah "loves nothing more than taking on defenders".
He will be joining the academy set-up and will look to break into the first team.
Berkeley-Agyepong joins a cohort of former Chelsea youngsters who made the move to Berkshire. This includes Jayden Wareham, Benn Elliott and John Swift to name a few.
