League One club Accrington Stanley have officially confirmed the signing of Nigerian midfielder Tariq Uwakwe on a season-long loan move, subject to Premier League, EFL and FA ratification.
His temporary transfer to The Reds is the first time in his career he has departed Chelsea since joining the club thirteen years ago.
In his first words as a player of Accrington Stanley, Uwakwe stated : "All I'm trying to do is impress here and push on from that really.
"I can't remember the last time I played a competitive match that was actually for three points, so I'm raring to go.
"I'm a player that just likes to get on the ball, whether it's in the defensive or offensive third, I just like to get on the ball, link up the play and get more players involved."
