BURTON Albion are delighted to announce the signing of striker Christian Saydee on loan from AFC Bournemouth until the end of the season.
Christian arrives at the Pirelli Stadium after impressing within Bournemouth’s youth setup, earning him a call-up to the first team.
Saydee scored on his debut for the Cherries in a 5-0 victory over MK Dons in the Carabao Cup. In total he has made five appearances in competitive competition, with two of those games coming in the Championship.
The forward has previously had loan spells with seventh-tier side Poole Town as well as National League club Weymouth.
Manager Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink spoke on the Bournemouth frontman, saying he is very happy to bring Christian into the club.
“Christian is a young powerful striker, that we are very glad to be able to bring in to the club," said Hasselbaink.
"We do not want to compare him to Jebbison at all, but after losing him we needed to bring someone in, and we think Saydee is the right man.
"He has a really bright future ahead (and) we hope he can have a very successful loan spell here."
