Chelsea complete signing of Fulham defender Tosin Adarabioyo

Chelsea signed Tosin Adarabioyo from Fulham for free. He is 26 years old and signed a four-year contract with Chelsea. This is Chelsea's first signing for the summer. They want to change their team before the new Premier League season. Tosin will join Chelsea on 1 July when his Fulham contract ends. In April, he turned down a big offer from Fulham to play for Chelsea in Europe. Tosin is excited to join Chelsea and help the team succeed. Tosin played a key role in Fulham's promotion and has played 45 Premier League games. His arrival at Chelsea might lead to Trevoh Chalobah leaving. Chelsea's directors are happy to have Tosin. They believe he is mature and experienced in the Premier League. They look forward to him joining the team for pre-season. Tosin is Chelsea's first signing since Enzo Maresca became the manager. Maresca thinks Tosin will fit well in his team. Chelsea have spent a lot on signings recently. They are working on improving their defense by signing Tosin. He is good with the ball and his height will help Chelsea defend against high balls. Chelsea hired a new set-piece coach to improve their performance on corners and free-kicks. Tosin is seen as a smart signing because he has Premier League experience and is cost-effective. Chelsea needed a new center-back after Thiago Silva left. Tosin will compete with other defenders in the team. Trevoh Chalobah might leave Chelsea as he is wanted by Manchester United.
