Huddersfield Town have landed Chelsea youngster Tino Anjorin on loan for the second time ahead of the pre-season friendly against Bolton Wanderers.
Wanderers host the Terriers tomorrow at the University of Bolton Stadium. It will be the final outing in pre-season for Ian Evatt's side before the start of the League One campaign at the end of July.
Town are similarly preparing for the beginning of the Championship season. They begin the campaign at the John Smith's Stadium against Burnley.

The Terriers have added the talents of attacking midfielder Anjorin ahead of the clash against Wanderers. He spent the second half of last season at Huddersfield, where he made eight appearances and scored once.
He has linked up with Town at their St George's Park training camp, having returned from Chelsea's pre-season tour of America. The Yorkshire side are happy with the return of the prospect.
Town head coach Danny Schofield said: "I’m incredibly happy to welcome Tino back to the group today, as he has the potential to be a real difference-maker for us on the pitch.
“He joined us on the back of a significant injury last season, and it understandably took him time to recover, but we saw all the ability that has made him so highly regarded across football as the season progressed in training and in flashes on the pitch. In particular, I thought his performance at Coventry City as a second half substitute was outstanding.
“Tino now joins us on the back of that demanding work with us and he’s been flying in pre-season. We’re all excited to have him with us again, and for him to show our fans what he is all about!”
Huddersfield's head of football Leigh Bromby added: “I would like to thank Neil Bath, Carlo Cudicini, and everyone at Chelsea for allowing Tino to return to us. We’ve got a great relationship formed over an extended period now. They’re happy to trust us with their young, talented players, and I believe we’ve repaid that in how we’ve helped their development.
“Tino is up there with most 20-year-olds in the country in terms of talent. He was unlucky last season with the injury he sustained, but our coaches saw more than enough in their work with him to push hard for his return for the coming season.
“We had to be patient as he went away with Chelsea’s First Team, but when the opportunity presented itself, we didn’t hesitate. Tino had lots of options, but it speaks volumes for the work of our staff that he knew this was where he wanted to come.”
