The young Portuguese talent is now part of the Yellow Submarine.
Details: The press service of Spanish side Villarreal has announced the permanent signing of 22-year-old Portuguese defender Renato Veiga from London club Chelsea.
The reported transfer fee is €24.5 million, with an additional €5 million to be paid as bonuses. Furthermore, Chelsea will receive a percentage of any future resale of Veiga.
The player himself has signed a long-term contract for seven years.
Veiga spent the second half of last season in Turin, playing for Juventus on loan, but failed to secure a regular spot in the starting XI of the Bianconeri, making just 15 appearances.
According to Transfermarkt, his market value is estimated at €25 million.
Reminder: The deal is done! Arnaut Danjuma is moving to Valencia!
