Chelsea has secured the signature of centre-back Tosin Adarabioyo from fellow West London club Fulham on a free transfer, the Premier League side announced on Friday.
The 26-year-old, who joins Stamford Bridge on a four-year contract starting July 1st, boasts one appearance for England under-19s and has accumulated 78 Premier League appearances.
Adarabioyo becomes Chelsea’s first signing since the appointment of new head coach Enzo Maresca earlier this week. His arrival strengthens Chelsea’s central defensive options following the departure of veteran Thiago Silva.
“We are delighted to welcome Tosin to Chelsea,” stated Chelsea co-sporting directors Laurence Stewart and Paul Winstanley. “Throughout his career, he has demonstrated maturity and defensive qualities, accruing valuable experience in the Premier League in recent seasons

“He is ready to make the step up to Chelsea and work alongside the talented players in our squad. We look forward to Tosin joining up with us for pre-season.”
Chelsea are looking to revive their fortunes under Maresca after finishing sixth in the table last season.
“I’m looking forward to starting work with Enzo and I’m sure the boys are too,” Adarabioyo said.
“It’s going to be exciting. We’re going to play good football and win a lot of games. There are top players in this squad and I’m eager to play with them all.”
