Chelsea youngsters sent to Vitesse Arnhem on loan

Patrick van Aanholt and Gael Kakuta will spend the coming season on loan at Vitesse Arnhem. The Dutch defender van Aanholt and French winger Kakuta are both highly rated by Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho, who hopes their spell away will give them regular first team football.

It is understood that Chelsea's deal for Marco van Ginkel included a clause that allows Vitesse Arnhem to loan three players over the next three seasons and the club decided to sign the duo.


The players have signed loan deals until the end of the coming season.
