Chelsea has completed the transfer of the young forward from Atlético Madrid

Chelsea has decided to sign young Atlético Madrid forward Samu Omorodion, who was on loan at Alavés.

Insider Fabrizio Romano reported that the London team will pay £35 million as a fixed fee to Atlético Madrid for the player. Samu Omorodion will sign a seven-year contract with the Blues, which has already been agreed upon. The player is currently preparing to undergo medical tests.

Notably, Bayer Leverkusen and other clubs tried to enter the race for the player, but Omorodion chose to join Chelsea.

Last season, Samu Omorodion successfully played on loan at Alavés. In 34 matches, the young forward scored 8 goals and provided 1 assist.

It is worth noting that Chelsea finished last season in sixth place, but will play in the Conference League as Manchester United won the FA Cup.

By the way, Atlético Madrid has finalized agreements with Chelsea for the transfer of Conor Gallagher and with Manchester City for the transfer of Julián Álvarez.
