Danny Drinkwater joins Kasimpasa on loan

Chelsea Midfielder Danny Drinkwater leaves chelsea on loan to Turkish outfit Kasimpasa.

Drinkwater has ventured abroad for the first time in his professional career, with the Super Lig club snapping him up on a short-term deal set to run until the end of the 2020-21 campaign.

The 30-year-old chelsea star hasn’t played for Chelsea since the Community Shield back in 2018, and has also taken in loan spells at Burnley and Aston Villa over the past couple of seasons.

He will now be charged with the responsibility helping Kasimpasa try to climb the standings in the Turkish top flight, with Fuat Capa’s side currently languishing down in 15th after 17 fixtures.

The club confirmed Drinkwater’s arrival in a statement on their official website, which reads: “English midfielder Daniel Noel Drinkwater, of English Premier League team Chelsea, has signed a contract that ties him to Kasimpasa on loan until the end of the season.”

Drinkwater joined Chelsea for £35 million ($47m) from Leicester City in the summer of 2017, one year after helping the Foxes win the Premier League for the first time in their history.

The former England international added an FA Cup to his trophy collection in his first season at Stamford Bridge, but has never quite been able to establish himself as a first-team regular.
