Reading have signed Cameroon international midfielder Ben Elliott from Chelsea on a three-year contract.

The 20-year-old made four appearances for the Blues' under-21 side in the EFL Trophy last season and scored one goal.

"Ben is a fantastically talented footballer," head of football operations Mark Bowen told the club website.

"[He] was understandably attracting serious attention from a host of clubs in England and overseas.

"Ben is desperate to demonstrate what he can do to impact first-team football matches and we're delighted that we have been able to bring him to Reading and to give him that opportunity to impress.
