Diego Fabbrini joins Real Oviedo on loan
According to the Blues’ official website, the 26-year-old Italian has been “deemed surplus to requirements” as boss Harry Redknapp shapes his squad for the coming season.
He remains contracted to the club for a further two years, but his upcoming spell in the Segunda Division will follow another spent with Spezia in Serie B during the 2016-17 campaign.
Fabbrini’s departure follows the arrivals of Craig Gardner, David Stockdale, Marc Roberts and Cheikh N’Doye.
