Oriol Romeu joins Valencia on loan

Oriol Romeu has finally completed a move away from Chelsea, as the talented defensive midfielder has agreed a season long loan deal back to his home country with Valencia.

Romeu, who joined the Blues from Barcelona over 2 years ago, has failed to force his way into Chelsea's starting line up and will now look for more regular first team football elsewhere.


The 21-year-old had been tipped as a big player for the future at Stamford Bridge, but new manager Jose Mourinho has decided the youngster should continue his development back in Spain and will be now hopeful that a successful year in La Liga improves his chances of a return to London.
