Drinkwater joins Kasimpasa on loan - Tenth most expensive English player in history
Chelsea have confirmed Danny Drinkwater has joined Turkish club Kasimpasa on loan until the end of the season. English midfielder Drinkwater joined Chelsea from Leicester for €37.9 million in 2017, but has made just 23 senior Stamford Bridge appearances. Up to now, he is the tenth most expensive English footballer in history, ahead of players like David Beckham and Wayne Rooney.
Drinkwater, who also ranks among the Blues’ 20 most expensive signings, has not featured in Chelsea’s first team since the 2018 Community Shield clash with Manchester City. The 30-year-old had been training with Chelsea’s U23 squad and was sent off in a development team match against Tottenham in December. With a market value of €4 million, Drinkwater is the Premier League club’s tenth most valuable player out on loan.
