Bertrand departs for Southampton
The speculation surrounding unwanted left back Ryan Bertrand’s future is over, with the player joining Premier League rivals Southampton on a season-long loan deal, effectively ending his Chelsea career.
Bertrand has struggled to make an impression at Stamford Bridge since starring in their Champions League final victory over Bayern Munich two years ago, spending the tail end of last season with Aston Villa.
The former Gillingham youngster had been linked with a host of Premier League sides this summer, but has been brought to St. Mary’s as a replacement for Manchester United new boy Luke Shaw.
