  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  Dyer is seen as a major talent at the club and is already a fixture for the Under-21s, having made 46 appearances at that age group. Volendam have confirmed that their deal to sign him was completed just four minutes before the transfer deadline, perhaps emphasising the level of their interest. Chelsea currently have 16 players out on loan, with Dyer becoming the 17th. 

• WHAT CHELSEA SAID

  Chelsea said in a statement:  "Chelsea is pleased to announce Academy midfielder Kiano Dyer has signed a new contract until 2030 and will spend the remainder of the season on loan at Eredivisie side Volendam.

  "Dyer joined Chelsea from West Bromwich Albion at the end of his Under-14s season and has represented England from Under-15s through to Under-19s level.

  "Over the past two campaigns, he has been a regular for Chelsea Under-21s, earning the Premier League 2 Player of the Month award in October 2024. He made his men’s first-team debut in December 2024, during a UEFA Conference League victory away at Astana.

  "Last season, he made 32 appearances in the Premier League 2, scoring three goals. He now moves on loan to the Netherlands to join Volendam, who secured promotion back to the Dutch top flight by winning the Eerste Divisie title in 2024/25.

  "We look forward to supporting Kiano throughout his time in Holland."
