Myles Peart-Harris, a teenage midfielder, has joined Brentford after leaving Chelsea. Peart-Harris joins Premier League new boys as the latest Chelsea kid to depart. As he makes the short journey across west London, the 18-year-old midfielder has signed a four-year contract with the Bees.

The highly-rated 18-year-old has signed a four-year contract with the Premier League newcomers, joining Marc Guehi and Lewis Bate in breaking connections with Stamford Bridge. He spent over a decade with the Blues but is now taking on a fresh task with the Bees as they aim to return to the top tier of English football.

“Myles is a highly bright young player and an exciting addition for us,” Brentford manager Thomas Frank said on the club's official website. The manager adds; "In our system, he is projected to play as an eight, and he matches the position profile wonderfully. He's a dynamic midfielder who likes to push the ball forward. On the ball, Myles is a fantastic player. He has the ability to score goals and provide assists for us. He has a knack for getting in the penalty area at just the correct moment. There's also a lot of room for growth for our coaches to work with. We believe there will be many areas where he can improve, notably defensively, but he possesses some excellent qualities, and we believe we can help him reach his full potential."

"Over recent seasons, we have made sure we have sought as many opportunities as possible to offer young players an opportunity to play and develop," said Phil Giles, Brentford's co-director of football. He continues: "even if we are now playing at a higher level, we want to stick to that principle. With that in mind, we're excited to see Myles earn his chance and hopefully be another young player to make a difference at Brentford."

Peart-Harris will not be the only Chelsea kid to go this summer, as more deals are in the works. Ian Maatsen, a 19-year-old Dutch left-back, is expected to join Coventry on a season-long loan, according to reports. Aidy Viveash, a former Blues youth coach, is now with the Sky Blues and has helped to persuade the defender that a period in the Championship would be ideal for his development.
