Chelsea have
completed the £20million signing of Fiorentina left-back Marcos Alonso.
Marcos Alonso has
signed a five-year contract with the Blues.
After last featuring
in the Premier League with Sunderland two years ago, Alonso revealed his
delight at returning to play in England.
“I’m very happy.
It’s a step up in my career and I think this is the perfect place for me to
continue developing,” revealed the 25-year-old. “It’s time for me to win some
titles.
“It was an easy
decision for me to make when I heard the club were interested in signing me.
“My family and close
friends know Chelsea is the club I have dreamed about playing for so I’m really
excited about the challenge and I’m looking forward to working with my new
team-mates.”
The Blues have also
been linked with re-signing Brazil defender David Luiz, whom they sold to Paris
St Germain for £50million prior to the 2014 World Cup, ahead of Wednesday’s
closure of the transfer window.
