Fabrizio Romano confirms another ‘here we go’ to Chelsea despite transfer window closing
Even though the transfer market closed last Friday, transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano declared another Chelsea signing to be a “here we go” deal!
Of course, there are still transfer windows open all over the world even if the English and many other European leagues closed their doors on Friday.
The Saudi League window was arguably one of the largest remaining open windows yesterday, with numerous clubs still trying to get some of their players out there.
And it looks like Chelsea have sold another player this window, with Angelo Gabriel moving to the Saudi league.
Here we go!
As you can see above, Romano has confirmed the ‘here we go’ for Angelo to join Al Nassr on a permanent move this summer.
Romano says:
‘Angelo Gabriel leaves Chelsea to join Al Nassr, here we go confirmed! Medical done and documents being exchanged, reviewed tonight. €23m fee plus sell-on clause as wanted by Chelsea.’
Chelsea have made a small bit of profit on a player who has not really been in their plans and spent last season on loan with Strasbourg.
Amgelo has looked pretty useful but let’s face it, he was never going to make it and play regular football at Chelsea, at least not at this stage with the amount of attacking midfield talent that the club have at their disposal right now.
Strange move for any young player to go to Saudi in my opinion, but hey at least he will get a nice little pay packet for a bit!
