Chelsea announced its first signing during the summer transfer window today, preparing for the new season. In an official statement, the club announced the acquisition of Tosin Adarabioyo on a four-year contract, coming from Fulham as a free transfer. After signing, Adarabioyo said, "Chelsea is a big team, and joining it is a huge moment in my career. I was born close to Stamford Bridge and played my first professional match there." He added, "I am very happy and look forward to playing my first match in a Chelsea shirt and helping the club achieve its goals, as I came here to win titles." Adarabioyo revealed that he communicated with Chelsea players Raheem Sterling and Cole Palmer, who gave him a positive impression of the London club. Chelsea finished last season in sixth place in the English Premier League and will participate in the UEFA Europa Conference League.
