Chelsea have announced the completion of the signing of the Brazilian teenager Kenedy.
The 19-year-old joins from Fluminense, who permitted him to take part in the Blues’ pre-season tour to North America before formalities of the deal were concluded. None of the terms have been disclosed.
The Brazil under-20 international, a left-footed attacker, told Chelsea’s website: "I am very happy to complete my transfer to Chelsea. It is an exciting time for me to join the English Premier League champions and I hope I can become an important player for the club.
"I very much enjoyed my time with the squad during pre-season and I am very grateful to Fluminense for allowing me this opportunity."
