Championship side Reading confirm signing Ghana defender Baba Rahman on loan from Chelsea

Reading have confirmed the loan signing of Ghana international defender Baba Rahman.

The enterprising left-back joins the English Championship side until the end of the 2022/23 season from Chelsea.

He returns to Reading after spending last season on loan at the club.

“We are delighted to announce that Baba Rahman has sealed a return to Reading Football Club for a second season-long loan spell in blue and white hoops,” Reading announced.

Head of Football Operations, Mark Bowen, said: “Through his energetic, wholehearted and powerful performances on the pitch and his infectious character off it, Baba became something of a fans favourite here at Reading last season. Since the day his loan spell ended in the summer, we have been hoping to bring him back and I am very pleased we have been able to secure his services for the 2022-23 campaign.”
