KAINE KESLER-HAYDEN - ASTON VILLA
Callum Brittain's departure has left Barnsley thin in the RWB position. We are left with an injury-prone Jordan Williams and Will Hondermarck (whose primary position is CM) to play the RWB role, which is a vital part of Michael Duff's system. The tykes could add Kaine Kesler-Hayden to their squad to add quality to the position.
Kesler-Hayden is a 19-year-old wing-back who plays for Aston Villa and will likely be available to loan.
Kesler-Hayden spent the first half of last season on loan at Swindon Town in League Two, he was awarded Swindon's young player of the season award despite only playing until January. He featured in Swindon Town's defeat to Man City in the FA Cup and gained praise for his performance against the Premier League champions. At Swindon, Kaine played RWB in a 3-1-4-2, very similar to Duff's 3-5-2.
He spent the second half of last season on loan at MK Dons in League One, playing 17 times in a Dons side that made it to the League One play-offs. Kesler-Hayden played as a wing-back for MK Dons again in a similar formation to Michael Duff's favoured 3-5-2 formation.
Hayden is strong at the offensive aspects needed for a wing-back, being strong at passing, dribbling and playing attacking through balls. He also likes to shoot from distance, blocks shots, tackle and has a significant defensive contribution, a well-rounded wing-back.
CHARLIE WEBSTER - CHELSEA
Chelsea's academy has generated some amazing players throughout the years such as John Terry, Mason Mount and Brad Collins, Barnsley's current goalkeeper. Chelsea have a great pool of up-and-coming talent reading to be loaned out and one of those players is Charlie Webster.
He hasn't yet made an appearance for Chelsea's first team but was named on the bench against Brentford in the EFL Cup quarter-final. He has trained with the first team on multiple occasions and is highly rated by the Chelsea first teamers.
Webster is an attacking midfielder and could add a much need goal threat to Michael Duff's side. He can take free kicks and will add attacking flair to this Barnsley side.
The 18-year-old has played for England at U16, U18 and U19 levels and made a total of 15 appearances for England across all age groups.
He has shown promise at academy level but Chelsea will want to loan him out to give him the experience of professional football.
