Struggling Dutch league club De Graafschap have completed a loan transfer of Chelsea striker Ben Sahar for the rest of the season.

Sahar, an Israeli international, has a three-year contract with the Premier League team. He previously spent six months at Dutch club NEC Nijmegen.

Sahar also had loans spells at Queens Park Rangers, Sheffield Wednesday and Portsmouth.

No. 17 De Graafschap, who only have two points more than last-place FC Volendam in the league standings, have also loaned Argentine striker Hugo Bargas to second division side FC Zwolle.

De Graafschap have also confirmed an interest in signing Ajax playmaker Siem de Jong on loan.
