Chelsea set to complete deal for Juan Mata

19 August 2011 - 22:16

Chelsea will sign Valencia midfielder Juan Mata this weekend, after the two teams agreed a 27m EUR package for the transfer of the Spain international. Mata had been linked with moves to Arsenal and Tottenham this summer; but the Blues have won the race for his coveted signature.

  • Chelsea to move for former Arsenal goalkeeper?
  • Arsenal handed huge boost ahead of Bournemouth clash

  • The 23 year old has already passed his medical at Stamford Bridge yesterday, all that remains is for some paperwork to be completed and Mata will be officially announced as a Chelsea player.



    Arsenal fans will be disappointed that Mata has chosen a move to the Bridge instead of the Emirates; as reports indicated that Mata was Arsene Wenger's top target this summer.



    Chelsea will pay a total of 27m EUR and Mata will sign a five year contract.
