Middlesbrough have announced that Chelsea midfielder Nathaniel Chalobah has signed for the club on loan until the end of the season.
The highly-rated England Under-21 international has moved to the Championship outfit following a four-month loan spell at Nottingham Forest.
Chalobah is the second Chelsea player this month acquired by Boro, who have also nabbed the services of defender Kenneth Omeruo on a temporary basis.
Nineteen-year-old Chalobah signed a fresh five-year contract at Stamford Bridge in August last year.
