Kurt Zuma signed with Chelsea a new six-year contract, and was immediately rented to Stoke City.

"We are very pleased that Kurt decided to link his future with our club," said Chelsea technical director Michael Emenalo. "He proved his class at once, as soon as he came to us three years ago, and character - when he fought the consequences of a serious injury received last year. Rent in Stoke is not due to the fact that we do not trust Zuma, but is designed to provide him with a constant gaming practice ".

22-year-old Frenchman in the season-2016/2017 took part in only 13 duels Chelsea.
