Chelsea FC have continued their busy summer transfer window by agreeing a £30m deal with Leicester City for midfielder Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall. The 25-year-old is now heading to Stamford Bridge to complete his medical and finalize the transfer.
According to The Athletic, Dewsbury-Hall will become Chelsea's fourth summer signing, following the arrivals of Tosin Adarabioyo, Omari Kellyman, and Estevao Willian. The midfielder's impressive performances for Leicester City last season, including 12 goals and 14 assists, have earned him a spot in the Blues' squad.
Dewsbury-Hall's decision to join Chelsea comes despite a £30m offer from Brighton, showcasing his desire to reunite with former Leicester boss Enzo Maresca, who is now at the helm at Stamford Bridge. The midfielder's move to Chelsea highlights the club's commitment to strengthening their squad after a sixth-place finish in the Premier League last season.
With Dewsbury-Hall's signing, Chelsea have now spent over £1billion on new signings under Todd Boehly's ownership, demonstrating their ambition to return to the top of English football. As the transfer window continues, Chelsea fans can expect more exciting developments as the club shapes its squad for the upcoming season.
