Premier League: Chelsea complete first transfer of summer as Tosin Adarabioyo signs for free from Fulham
Chelsea have completed the first summer signing of the season as they completed a deal for Fulham’s Tosin Adarabioyo on Friday (June 7). The deal is a free transfer after the Englishman’s deal expired with Fulham at the end of last season. He will become the first addition to new manager Enzo Maresca’s squad as they try to return to the elites of the Premier League. Chelsea will be playing in Europe in the 2024-25 season after qualifying for the UEFA Conference League.

After signing for the Blues, Tosin said: “Chelsea is a huge club and this is a full-circle moment for me. I was born three miles away from Stamford Bridge and made my professional debut there. I’m very excited and looking forward to helping push the club in the direction we want to go.”
The 26-year-old has signed a four-year deal as he swapped one West London club to the other and will try to become a mainstay at Chelsea. He will be a main addition to the midfield that already consists of Conor Gallagher, Enzo Fernandes and Moisés Caicedo.

Chelsea had a poor start to the Premier League’s 2023-24 season but ended on a high after they finished sixth. They missed out on Champions League football by just six points while also being just three points behind fifth placed Tottenham Hotspur.
The Blues will now look to advance in the transfer window where they are expected to sign a new striker. The list includes the names of Ivan Toney and Victor Osimhen as they are high on the team’s wishlist. While Arsenal are also in the race to sign these players, Osimhen is the likeliest target for the side after he confirmed his desire to leave Napoli.
Antonio Conte will be reportedly interested in signing Romelu Lukaku if Osimhen decides to leave. It is reported that Lukaku has no future at the club and will not partner with Nicolas Jackson next season. This leaves both Chelsea and Napoli discussing a possible swap deal.
