Midfield Maestro Joins the Blues
Chelsea has bolstered its ranks with the signing of promising midfielder Omari Kellyman from Aston Villa, in a deal that could reach a value of £19 million. The 18-year-old prodigy has inked a six-year deal with the Stamford Bridge outfit, with an option to extend for an additional year.
A Dream Move for Kellyman
Kellyman, who has made a couple of appearances in the Premier League and has also represented England at the youth level, expressed his delight at joining the prestigious London club. “It is a dream come true for sure. I’m buzzing to have put on the shirt and can’t wait to get started,” said the elated teenager.
Chelsea’s Summer Reinforcements
The acquisition of Kellyman marks Chelsea’s third summer signing, following the arrivals of defender Tosin Adarabioyo and Brazilian talent Estevao Willian. While Adarabioyo is set to strengthen the backline, Willian is slated to join the squad next summer after another season at Palmeiras.
