Chelsea have announced that Tosin Adarabioyo will join them from fellow London club Fulham before the start of next season.

The Blues made the announcement in a statement on Friday.

According to the club, “Chelsea is pleased to announce centre-back Tosin Adarabioyo will join the club ahead of the 2024/25 season.

“The 26-year-old has signed a four-year contract – which begins on July 1 – and arrives from west London neighbours Fulham." Chelsea said.

Shortly after signing for the Blues, Adarabioyo 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.”

Born in London but raised in Manchester, Adarabioyo began his career with Manchester City at the age of five.

He moved through the club’s youth ranks and regularly captained the U-18s at 16 years old.

His professional debut arrived in February 2016 at Stamford Bridge. He started for a youthful Man City side in the FA Cup and went on to make seven more first-team appearances across the following two campaigns.
