After four successive seasons on loan spells away from the club, Ethan Ampadu has become Chelsea’s longest-serving player following the exit of Baba Rahman.
Rahman drew the curtains on an eight-year career at Stamford Bridge with a permanent switch to Greek side PAOK. The Ghanaian international had made just 23 appearances for the club – all of which came in his debut season, with him not donning the Blues shirt since the 2015/16 campaign.
The left-back cost in the region of £14million when signed from German club Augsburg but had a nomadic career since, spending three seasons on loan in Germany with Schalke before stints at Reims, Mallorca and PAOK – before spending two seasons at Reading in the Championship.
