Yes, that Liverpool headline is because Chelsea have completed the signing of
midfielder Romelu Lavia from Southampton. The 19-year-old has signed a
seven-year contract at Stamford Bridge on completing his move to Chelsea. He has
said, I'm really happy to join Chelsea and to be part of this exciting project.
It's an amazing football club with a great history. I'm really excited to get
started. I can't wait to meet all my new teammates and build a chemistry together
to achieve great things together. Co-sporting directors Lawrence Stewart
and Paul Winstanley said we are very pleased to welcome Romelu to Chelsea. He
demonstrated his quality in the Premier League last season at Southampton,
showing maturity despite his young age and as a player we've monitored for
some time. We believe he's ready to make an impact at Chelsea throughout the
current campaign and in the coming years.
