Chelsea complete Juan Cuadrado deal

Chelsea complete Cuadrado deal

Chelsea have completed the signing of Fiorentina winger Juan Cuadrado on a deal until 2019.

Viola coach Vincenzo Montella revealed last week that the Colombian international was leaving for Stamford Bridge, and after Andre Schurrle finalised his switch to Wolfsburg, the Premier League leaders have confirmed that they secured Cuadrado's signature.

The 26-year-old told the club's official website: "I am very happy and thankful for this opportunity that I've been given.

"This is a great club and honestly, it is like a dream to join the Chelsea family and to know that the manager believes in me. I'm happy."

It has been reported that Mohamed Salah could move in the opposite direction, but Chelsea are yet to clarify the Egyptian's current status.
