Chelsea have completed the signing of England international Ben Chilwell from Leicester City.
The 23-year-old has put pen to paper on a five-year contract at Stamford Bridge in a deal thought to be worth around £50m.
Chilwell becomes Chelsea's third signing of the summer following the arrivals of Hakim Ziyech and Timo Werner, while deals for Thiago Silva, Kai Havertz and Malang Sarr are also thought to be close to completion.
"I am delighted to be joining Chelsea at this very exciting time for the club," Chilwell told Chelsea's official website.
"I'm looking forward to being a part of this young, dynamic squad led by Frank Lampard as we challenge for honours next season. I can't wait to get started and hopefully it won't be long before we're playing in front of the Chelsea fans at Stamford Bridge."
