Peter Taylor has strengthened his attacking options with the capture of Leicester City forward Ashley Chambers, wwfc.com can exclusively reveal.
The 19-year-old joins the Blues on loan until Saturday 2nd January and is eligible for the clash with Norwich City at Adams Park on the same day.
Chambers has made nine first team appearances for the Foxes and holds the record for the youngest ever player to feature in the club's first team, when aged 15 and 203 days he came on a substitute in Leicester's Carling Cup tie with Blackpool in September 2005.
The forward has also represented England at U17, U18 and U19 level. He started his international career in sparkling fashion when he scored a hat-trick in the U17s win over the Faroe Islands in the 2005 Nordic tournament.
He collected his first cap at U19 level earlier this year after playing against Spain in February.
Chambers, who will wear number 27, has travelled with the rest of the squad for Saturday's game at Norwich City.
