Chelsea Football Club has acquired defender Tosin Adarabioyo from Fulham on a no-cost transfer.

The 26-year-old has inked a four-year contract with the Blues. Adarabioyo, who transferred to Fulham from Manchester City in 2020, expressed gratitude to Fulham supporters and the club on Thursday through a statement on his X page.

In a heartfelt message, he expressed his gratitude to Fulham Football Club and everyone involved for the incredible journey of the past four years. With the manager, staff, teammates, and supporters by his side, they created cherished memories that will forever hold a special place in his heart. As a new chapter beckons, he wished them all the very best for the future.

Reports suggest that despite receiving several new contract offers, the center-back made the decision to depart Fulham as a free agent this summer.

Newcastle engaged in talks with him, and even Manchester United presented their offer.

However, it has been revealed that Chelsea ultimately enticed him with a more enticing contract. In a recent press conference, Adarabioyo, who was just unveiled as a new member of Chelsea, expressed his enthusiasm for joining the club.

He described Chelsea as a massive club and shared that it was a special moment for him, considering he was born just three miles away from Stamford Bridge and even made his professional debut there.

With great excitement, Adarabioyo eagerly looks forward to contributing towards the club’s progress and helping them achieve their desired goals.

His arrival at Chelsea could potentially have significant consequences for the future of Trevoh Chalobah, a promising defender from the Chelsea academy.

Rumors suggest that Manchester United has shown interest in acquiring Chalobah, which means he might be up for sale during the upcoming summer transfer window.

This development adds an intriguing twist to the transfer market dynamics, as clubs vie for talented players to strengthen their squads.

Furthermore, it has been confirmed that Thiago Silva, aged 39, will be leaving Chelsea to rejoin his former Brazilian club, Fluminense.
