Transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano posted on Facebook on Wednesday : "Agreement done and completed between Chelsea and Lokomotiv Moscow for Tino Anjorin. Long term contract and loan to Russian club - where the market is still open".

Anjorin's signed a new contract at Chelsea last summer, keeping him at Stamford Bridge until June 30, 2025.

The 19-year-old is expected to join his new team after the international break as he was named in the latest England U20 squad for their friendly against Romania at St. George's Park on Monday, September 6.

Anjorin faced Russian opposition in the form of Krasnodar in the group stage of last season's UEFA Champions League, playing for eighty minutes in a 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge.
