The 20-year-old joined the Championship club initially for a month. However, an impressive display during his time at Griffin Park saw Brentford keep him so they can utilise his services until the end of this calendar year.
A statement on Chelsea’s official website read, “John Swift’s loan to Championship club Brentford will continue into 2016 following an initial one month at Griffin Park. His loan has been extended to 3 January.”
“The 20-year-old midfielder, who has won Under-21 and Under-18 honours at Chelsea and made his first-team debut in 2014, has played four games for the Bees in October and scored the opener in a 3-0 London derby win at Charlton at the weekend.
