Chelsea have reached a full agreement to sign Aaron Anselmino from Boca Juniors for £17million plus add-ons
Over the past few weeks – CHELSEA have been doing alot of transfer business and signing some of the games very best and brightest talents as they seek to take the club into a new era.Anselmino – who joined Boca’s academy aged 12 – signed a new four-year deal in January. The club are said to be well aware of the interest in their youngster and have consequently placed a £25m release clause in his contract, asking for around £17m should this figure not be met
But it seems that Chelsea have agreed to sign the talented defender – and the plan is for the centre-back, 19, to return to Buenos Aires-based Boca Juniors for six months on an initial loan
Anselmino is a very talented young defender that has the ability to be a very classy defender – but again he is a player that the club do not need to spend so much money on right now and a player that could struggle to make an impact on the side.
The board believe that they are signing players that will take the club forward – but that does not mean that talents have to make the move to Stamford Bridge at this stage of their careers.
Anselmino does not need to make the move to Europe right now and does not need to leave his homeland – but we can see why this would be a dream move for the lad and one that he could not turn down.
