Attacker agrees personal terms – Chelsea have agreed fee – Maresca getting new signing!
Chelsea are set to sign Samu Omorodion from Atletico Madrid on a seven-year contract after agreeing to pay the Spanish giants £35 million in order to get a move done.
It is no secret that the CHELSEA board are still looking to buy the best young players in the game over the next few months and bring them to Stamford Bridge – with a host of stars linked.
20-year-old Spain U21 international Omorodion has only been with Atletico Madrid since moving in 2023 from Granada and his contract runs out in June 2028, having spent last season on loan at Deportivo Alaves, netting nine goals and providing one assist in 35 appearances
The club reportedly had a £34 million offer rejected last month, with Marca claiming that it would take another £46 million to do a deal with Atletico Madrid – but that no longer seems the case and the Blues have managed to get the lad for the fee that they wanted.
According to Fabrizio Romano, everything is set for the transfer to be confirmed, with the deal costing Chelsea £35m. Personal terms have already been agreed with the player, who is set to sign a seven-year contract at Stamford Bridge until 2031.

Look, the lad is very talented – that is for sure- but what at CHELSEA doing? They need to make some experienced signings this summer and not keeping adding talents to the side or they may be in fighting to stay in the Premier League next season.
Omorodion is good but he is not the kind of player that will come to the Premier League and get all the big boys worried about what he could do next season – he is not quite ready for the move to Chelsea.
If Madrid believed that he could be a superstar – they would not allow him to leave – but they are – and for far less than they origonally wanted.
