Chelsea winger Dastan Satpayev is close to completing a loan move to Championship club Burnley.

The Kazakhstan international signed a six-year deal, with an option for a further season, on his 18th birthday on Wednesday after pre-agreeing to join Chelsea in January 2025 in a £3.4m move from Kairat FC.

Satpayev has already travelled to Turf Moor and is expected to complete a medical before Burnley host West Ham on Sunday.

It is one of a number of loan moves involving Chelsea this week, with Ryan Kavuma-McQueen joining Portsmouth, Reggie Walsh moving to Wigan Athletic and Shim Mheuka also nearing a move away.
