Chelsea have officially gone on to reveal that they have completed the signing of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Oscar-c28720 from Internacional.
The London club had been linked with a move for the midfielder for a couple of weeks now, but it seemed like they might just miss out on the opportunity to sign him.
However, with Oscar flying to London to take part in the London Olympics 2012. The team was given hope in their pursuit to lure the playmaker to the Stamford Bridge.
Following some agreements behind closed doors, the club finally went on to reveal that the midfielder would be playing for Chelsea, starting next season.
At the moment, no clear details have been revealed in regards to the move, apart from the fact that the youngster has cost the team a fee of around twenty five million pounds.
With Oscar now coming into the team, he has become the team’s fourth signing of the summer transfer window. Chelsea have already signed http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marko-Marin-c24198 and the two Hazard brothers.
Last season, Oscar went on to score thirteen goals in the forty four matches that he played for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Internacional-c39573. This time around, he had already scored six in twenty appearances, but is not going to add to that number, since he is moving to Chelsea.
Earlier in the month, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roberto-c31294 Di Matteo had repeatedly insisted that he had no idea what was happening in regards to Oscar moving to Chelsea. As it stands, it seems like the manager was just playing that card, to avoid any other team showing signs of interest in the midfielder.
The Blues have gone on to admit that they need to start bringing in younger players, in order to build for the future. The team was desperately shot on midfielders to replace the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Frank-Lampard-c14097, but it seems like they are slowly but surely making their way forward.
Di Matteo seems to have a very good idea and vision over how the team needs to progress next season and should he be able to stick to him plans, then he could help http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 build on last season’s success and take them one step further this time around.
