Chelsea's England Under-21 midfielder Josh McEachran has completed a season-long loan move to Middlesbrough.

McEachran, 19, was on loan at Swansea last season, making five appearances for the club as they finished in 11th place after promotion to the Premier League.

He will be hoping to establish himself in Tony Mowbray's Boro side as they attempt to return to the top flight.

The Riverside Stadium club finished last season in seventh place, missing a play-off spot by five points.
