Academy midfielder Lewis Bate has today completed a permanent transfer to
Leeds United.

Bate first started training at Chelsea at the age of eight and captained
our Under-18s in the FA Youth Cup final last year, as well as featuring
three times for our development squad during their title-winning Premier
League 2 campaign.
The 18-year-old has been named among the substitutes for the senior men's
team on three occasions, most recently for our FA Cup fifth-round tie
against Barnsley in February.
Last season, Bate was a mainstay in our development squad's midfield and
played 26 times in total across the age groups, picking up the PL2 Player
of the Month award in December.
We thank Lewis for his time at the club and wish him well in the future.
