Leeds United have agreed to sign Chelsea goalkeeper Jamal Blackman on a season-long loan, according to Sky sources.

Sky sources understand he is having a medical with the club on Saturday morning.

Blackman came through Chelsea's youth ranks, but has yet to make an appearance for the senior side.

This will be his fifth loan move, after spending time at Middlesbrough, Ostersunds FK, Wycombe Wanderers and most recently, Sheffield United. He made 33 appearances in the Sky Bet Championship for Chris Wilder's side in the 2017/18 season.
