Chelsea have confirmed the signing of Borussia Dortmund and United States international winger Christian Pulisic for £58m.
The 20 year old was linked to several top clubs in the Premier League, and the West London club has now moved to sign the winger who was initially signed by the Bundesliga leaders as a 17 year old.
However, he is not expected to make his debut at the club until this summer, as he has been loaned back to the German club where he would spend the next six months.
He has made over a 100 appearances for Dortmund in three and half seasons with three goals in 18 appearances this season. But most of his appearances have been as a substitute this season.
He becomes the first major signing of a top six club in the January transfer window, and joins a long list of players who have been bought and loaned out by Chelsea in recent years, but his stay away from the club is expected to be a short one.
