Barcelona starlet join Chelsea

Oriol Romeu had completed the signing with Chelsea for 4 year-deal


Oriol Romeu
The 19-years old is currently playing for Spain's Under 20 World Cup and also in Barcelona B team. His recognition from Chelsea was high when Barcelona B team finished third in second division. 

Villas-Boas said, " The Barcelona B team had a magnificent year in the Spanish second division, they finish third". However Barcelona B cannot proceed into La Liga as Barcelona FC play at that league.


Oriol made his first-team debut at the end of last season but only plays for 7 minutes. Lack of opportunity, force him to make a choice to leave Barca. He said, "Leaving Barca hurts, but you have to take your chances". "Chelsea is a great option for me".


Reports in Barcelona suggested the bid was around 5 million euros but Barca demanded the buy-back clause as they don't want the transfer saga of Fabregas happened again.
