Burton Albion have made two late deadline-day loan signings by bringing in Birmingham City attacking midfielder Romelle Donovan and Chelsea striker Ronnie Stutter.

Donovan, 17, made 10 Blues appearances last season following his debut against Hull City in October - in former boss Wayne Rooney's first home game in charge.

He was part of the Blues under-21s team which reached the Professional Development League National Final in 2021.

He joins a Burton side managed by former Chelsea development coach Mark Robinson who have made an indifferent start to the season, picking up two points from their first three games.

Stutter, 19, is yet to make a Chelsea first-team appearance but played under Robinson for the under-21s.

He is the Brewers' 20th summer signing since the Sweden-based Nordic Football Group's takeover of the League One club in early June.

Burton have also announced that Jasper Moon has completed a season-long loan move to League Two side Harrogate Town and that they have parted company with former West Bromwich Albion midfielder Rekeem Harper.

The 24-year-old, who made 34 appearances after joining from Ipswich Town last summer, has come to a mutual agreement with the club to be released from his contract.

Burton are away to Northampton Town on Saturday.
