FEN understands that Chelsea have completed the signing of Fiorentina winger Juan Cuadrado, with a medical set to take place tomorrow.
Football Express News reported the late interest from Manchester United for the Colombian winger, but he has now opted for a move to Jose Mourinho’s Chelsea.
The winger has a £26 million termination fee in his contract at the Serie A club, and it is understood that Chelsea activated this particular fee to help force through a move.
The 26-year-old has been at Fiorentina since 2012, and has gone on to accumulate over 85 appearances for the Italian outfit.
His ability to produce electrifying performances from the wing and create and score goals will help to enhance the already sizeable amount of midfield talent the Blues obtain.
FEN understands that Chelsea winger Mohamed Salah will be going the other way and will sign a six-month loan deal at the Italian club.
