Chelsea wonderkid’s loan transfer collapses at last minute as West Brom take Marc Albrighton instead

CHELSEA wonderkid Omari Hutchinson saw a transfer deadline day move to West Brom break down.

The 19-year-old had reportedly been on the brink of a loan switch to the Baggies.

But it’s claimed the Championship outfit decided to sign veteran Marc Albrighton instead.

The 33-year-old wing-back joined West Brom on loan until the end of the campaign.

Albrighton has barely featured for Leicester this season, starting just once in the Premier League.

His switch scuppered Hutchinson’s chance to join the Hawthorns outfit, according to Chelsea writer Simon Phillips.

Instead the youngster will be staying with the Blues.

However big-spenders Chelsea, who confirmed the £107million arrival of Enzo Fernandez today, were claimed to have been ready to announce Hutchinson’s loan.

Hutchinson has played twice for the first-team this season and has also been on the bench a handful of times.

The exciting talent, who joined from Arsenal last summer, wasn’t the only Chelsea star to see a deadline day move break down.

Hakim Ziyech was on the verge of joining Paris Saint-Germain until Chelsea sent the wrong paperwork to the French giants.

PSG, who were left fuming by the gaffe, lodged an appeal to try and get the deal done.

But the French FA ruled that the move cannot go through.
