Official: Chelsea recall Eddie Beach from Crawley Town
Today at 01:36 AM
Back, for now
Chelsea have confirmed the recall of young goalkeeper Eddie Beach from League One side Crawley Town, where he had made just a couple appearances unfortunately in the first-half of the season.
Beach had joined with a view towards competing for the starting job at Crawley, and while he didn't quite manage to win said competition (thanks in part to a multi-week injury), the club have thanked him for that "important role" in their own announcement of his departure.
The 21-year-old former Southampton academy product will now presumably look for a more fruitful assignment for the second half of the season, though his contract is also expiring this summer so he might have some bigger decisions to make as well regarding his career.
This was Beach's third loan in the last three years, but only at the first of those, at Chelmsford City two years ago, did he see significant playing time.
Welcome back, for now, Eddie.
