club statement read: "Lewis Baker's loan agreement with Vitesse Arnhem has been extended to cover the 2016/17 season.
"It follows a year there in which the 21-year-old midfielder made 34 appearances and scored five goals, including one away to De Graafschaap in February which was voted the club’s goal of the season. Vitesse finished ninth in the Dutch top division.
"Baker, who was Chelsea Young Player of the Year and made his debut in 2014, played a major part in England Under-21s’ victory in the Toulon Tournament this summer, scoring in the final against France and collecting the Golden Boot having found the target in every game he played."
wBaker has made one senior appearance for Chelsea, coming off the bench in the 2-0 win over Derby in the FA Cup third round tie in 2014.
He is the second Chelsea player to move to Vitesse this summer after the Stamford Bridge outfit confirmed Brazilian Nathan would also be returning to the club earlier this month.
