Juan Mata is on the verge of joining Chelsea from Valencia for a fee of €27m (£23.5m). Mata spoke to André Villas-Boas during the day and the Chelsea manager explained the role he has in mind for the attacking midfielder. Lawyers are finalising details on the deal, which is expected to be definitively closed on Saturday. The Chelsea manager had admitted this week: "We might just add a number in midfield."
I hope he joins chelsea he would be a great addition!
He would be a great buy for Chelsea as he would add the much needed pace to the team and add more creativity
What happened to Arsenal signing Mata? Don't tell me that £23 million is too much for Wenger's tastes.
It was only a Mata of time! :p
Anyway its official now Chelsea have agreed a fee with Valencia for Mata.
