[edit] Career
Born in Hammersmith, London, Cummings joined Chelsea's academy as a 12-year-old in 2002 and was the Blues' leading appearance-maker at reserve team level in the 2007–08 season, playing 18 games and scoring once.[2] He was originally a striker.[citation needed]
In August 2008, he was loaned to League One team Milton Keynes Dons. He made his debut for the Dons on 16 August 2008 against Northampton Town.[3] He joined Championship team West Bromwich Albion on a month's loan on 17 August 2009,[4] but the loan was cut short when he was permanently transferred to Reading for an undisclosed fee on 1 September 2009, signing a three-year deal. However continuous bad performances have led him to be dropped out of the first team and replaced by Jay Tabb.[5][6]
