Chelsea Confirm Departure Of Winger For 2022/23 Season

Tino Anjorin has completed a loan move to Huddersfield Town for the 2022/23 campaign, it has been confirmed. 

The 20-year-old leaves Chelsea to head back to Yorkshire, where he spent the second half of last season with the Terriers who lost in the Championship Play-Off final to Nottingham Forest.

Despite having lots of interest from England and Europe, Anjorin has opted to head back to familiar settings which saw him make eight appearances, netting one goal during his loan spell. 

Anjorin left Chelsea’s pre-season tour of the United States early to finalise a loan move and that has now been confirmed. 

Wishing you well for the season, Tino! 🤝

He will wear the number eight shirt, with his signing coming to the delight of Head Coach Danny Schofield.

The Huddersfield boss said: “I’m incredibly happy to welcome Tino back to the group today, as he has the potential to be a real difference-maker for us on the pitch.

“He joined us on the back of a significant injury last season, and it understandably took him time to recover, but we saw all the ability that has made him so highly regarded across football as the season progressed in training and in flashes on the pitch. In particular, I thought his performance at Coventry City as a second half substitute was outstanding.

“Tino now joins us on the back of that demanding work with us and he’s been flying in pre-season.

"We’re all excited to have him with us again, and for him to show our fans what he is all about!"

The club’s Head of Football Leigh Bromby was full of praise for Chelsea and their handling of the Anjorin deal, adding: “I would like to thank Neil Bath, Carlo Cudicini, and everyone at Chelsea for allowing Tino to return to us. 

“We’ve got a great relationship formed over an extended period now.

"They’re happy to trust us with their young, talented players, and I believe we’ve repaid that in how we’ve helped their development.

“Tino is up there with most 20-year-olds in the country in terms of talent.

"He was unlucky last season with the injury he sustained, but our coaches saw more than enough in their work with him to push hard for his return for the coming season.

“We had to be patient as he went away with Chelsea’s First Team, but when the opportunity presented itself, we didn’t hesitate.

"Tino had lots of options, but it speaks volumes for the work of our staff that he knew this was where he wanted to com
