Doncaster have signed former England Under-19 forward Alex Kiwomya from Chelsea.

Kiwomya, 21, who spent last season on loan at Crewe, has put pen to paper on a three-year contract.

"It was a hard decision to leave Chelsea as I've been there from the age of 14, but I think it was the right time to make a permanent move and show people what I can do," Kiwomya told Doncaster's official website.

"I know the club came in for me a couple of times last season but we couldn't get the deal done. It's nice to know they've had their eye on me for a while."

Kiwomya hails from a footballing family as his father Andy played for Barnsley and Bradford, while former Ipswich striker Chris is his uncle.
