Bristol City Complete Permanent Signing of Chelsea's Jay Dasilva on 4-Year Deal

Bristol City have confirmed the signing of Chelsea youngster Jay Dasilva on a four-year deal for an undisclosed fee.

The 21-year-old spent last season on loan at Ashton Gate, making 28 Championship appearances as Lee Johnson's side flirted with the playoffs after a number of eye catching displays.

Dasilva has now opted to make the permanent move, leaving Chelsea three years after graduating from the club's academy. In a statement on their official website, Bristol City CEO Mark Ashton revealed his delight at sealing the deal.

“We saw first-hand last season just how talented Jay is and he quickly earned the respect of the City supporters.
