Hull City have boosted their defensive options by signing Chelsea teenager Fikayo Tomori on a season-long loan.

The 19-year-old Canada-born defender made his senior debut for Chelsea late in the 2015/16 season and spent the second half of last season on loan with Brighton, helping them to win promotion to the Premier League.

He spent the summer with England's U20 squad and boosted their quest to win the FIFA U20 World Cup.

Tomori has since made the step up to the England U21 squad for games against the Netherlands and Latvia.
