Aston Villa have completed the signing of Alejandro Garnacho on an initial season long deal.
However, the move includes an obligatory purchase clause at the end of the season, with the Argentina international becoming a permanent Villa player next summer.
The 22-year-old will sign a four-year contract next summer, with the reported fee set at £43m when he joins on a permanent basis.
It is a way around FFP regulations for all parties and will help fill the void at Villa Park left by Morgan Rogers, who moved in the opposite direction for a British transfer record of £117m.
He departs Stamford Bridge just one year after arriving from Manchester United in a £40m deal, scoring eight goals in 43 appearances in all competitions with the Blues.
